With the laptop base build running, I took my old file server (P3 running |
| 2 |
old m$) and decided to convert this to a test server for web dev. I just |
| 3 |
went with a stage 3 and genkernel (never tried this before), and the basics |
| 4 |
went fine. I'm up to chap 7.e (looking for .ko), and I need to make sure |
| 5 |
that the nic comes up on reboot. The card is a Linksys NC100 |
| 6 |
(NetworkEverywhere) card. From what I've read googling and such - |
| 7 |
a) I couldn't find a driver, except for win (network-drivers.com) |
| 8 |
b) I think the windows wrapper is tulip, but am not sure |
| 9 |
|

One of the google threads I found talked about someone using 'tulip', and |
| 11 |
another part of that thread mentioned ndiswrappers. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I would like to think that coldplug and the genkernel way of compiling would |
| 14 |
just 'see' the nic card and come up, but I've been wrong before about that. |
| 15 |
Any input is appreciated. |

(I also have an ATI video card in here [Radeon RT100 QY (Radeon 7000 VE), so |
| 18 |
if there's some similar homework I need to do on this one, please share) |
