NIC help

[David McInnis]

Where did you get the updated kernel from?  I assume that you are
running YDL 2.1.

Hi David!

I had the same problems too with my RTL8139 NIC but I think that there
isn't
any decent chip support until kernels 2.4.16 and upwards. I run both
2.4.16
and 2.4.17 on two PPC 7600 with RTL8139 support compiled into the
kernel.

Regards,

Ake Svensson
