I have a dlink dl2518 and I can't get gentoo to find it. I tried to modprobe dl2k, sis900, via-rhine and sundance and nothing worked. Please help me. ![Razz :P](images/smiles/icon_razz.gif) |

yay! got it working now. As it turns out, the ethernet card that was in the computer was a crappy old ISA card which wasn't plug and play compatible. Luckily I had a new Linksys card kicking around so I quickly installed it. Now everything works great. |
