Hi all again,

first I want to thanks Iain Stevenson for the precious help he gaves me
to make my ati Nexus 128 works.
After configured the video now there's a problem with the second
ethernet card I've on my 8600/200.
As you probably know the PC 8600 comes with a built in 10Mb card. I've
upgraded with an Asante' 10/100 PCI Fast Revision B plugged in the PCI
slot at address 14.
I've configured the network but YDL 2.0 (kernel 2.2.19) can't use the
10/100 card but only the built-in.
Inside /proc/pci it says:
 
Bus 0, device 14, function 0:
    Ethernet controller: LiteOn LNE100TX (rev 32).
      Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 24. Master
Capable. Latency=50.
      I/O at 0x800 [0x801].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0x80800000 [0x80800000].

One question is: Why YDL recognise an Asante' card as another card
(LiteOn LNE100TX) ?

So I've looked in the list archives if someone got the same problem and
the result was that probably I need a new version of the tulip driver.
I've downloaded the source files...installed gcc and the kernel headers
and tried to compile but with no success.

Second question: Has anyone a workin driver or any other hints or
suggestions?

Thank you so much in advance
