|
|
Whilst trying to get 3D acceleration working I realised my modules might be compiled to 386 so I recompiled everything ( modules and Kernel ) and now the network ( and a couple of other things but they, for the most part, where expected - i.e. ALSA and DRM ) has stopped working.
I havn't a clue where to look to try to :-
1) Manually force the network up.
2) Find out why it's died.
3) Fix it.
Thanks
Dom. |

I have a similar problem. If I compile my kernel with athlon xp option, my network card module (8139too) fails to load. It loads successfully if I compile with i386, however.
Is there any way I can compile my kernel/other modules using athlon xp settings, and only the 8139too module using 386 settings? _________________ Antrix

When I posted this I couldn't remember the Card I was using, but having checked it is a Realtec 8139 based card.
I'll set it to recompile using i686 when I return to work. Hopefully be done when I finish . |
