Hi everyone,
I have a wireless connection working fine on wlan0.
I want to create a bridge between wlan0 and my ethernet card to share the Internet connection with another computer.
The problem is that even if the module ( sk98lin ) is loaded properly I get the following message :
ifconfig eth0
eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
or :
ifconfig sk98lin
sk98lin: error fetching interface information: Device not found

If you could help.

Thanks

Anything in the kernel log?

Are you sure you have a device supported by the sk98lin driver?

Yes I'm sure because before using my onboard wifi, I used eth0 to connect to another computer to get the Internet connection.

Please, help me

I don't understand the modules sk98lin is loaded and lspci gives :
0000:02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Marvell Yukon 88 E8053 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter (rev 15)
How can I get it work ?

It is now working.
New version of the driver : http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/d0102_driver.html
