[niravpatel]

Slackware 10.0 full install
Subject: Problem with NIC card in Slackware 10.0

Symptoms:

>ping <any reachable IP on network>
Network is not reachable

The same card is working as Realtek rtl8139 in Microsoft Windows 2000 professional, though initially it was detected as Asound, but I supplied the driver from the vendor supplied floppy, and it is working fine.

The same card was working in Slackware 9.1 with name AMD PC Net 2...

ok! let's start from the begning....

Here is what i have tried so far..
1. which NIC i have?

>lspci
01:0a.0 Ethernet controller: MYSON Technology Inc SURECOM EP-320X-S 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter

2. Then googled for the driver...found one match on

http://www.scyld.com/

3. Downloaded myson803.c and others { pci-scan.c, pci-scan.h, kern_compt.h } from the same site.

3. Compiled the myson803.c as per the instruction on the same site on page

http://www.scyld.com/modules.html

>gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -O6 -c myson803.c
>

compiled successfully without any error!!!!!

4. try to insert the module into the kernel using

>insmod myson803.o
myson803.o: unresolved symbol pci_drv_unregister
myson803.o: unresolved symbol pci_drv_register

5. ?????

Some help would be appriciated, I don't want to downgrade to Slackware 9.1...

Thanks.

niravpatel - this is the hard drive forum.

perhaps forum602 or forum750 would be better place to post.
