I build the driver for my card in the kernel.
using this command during setup :
| Quote: | | echo r8029 >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 |
Where do i find the kernel config file ? (cant find it whit ) | Quote: | | whereis kernel , kernel.cfg or kernel.config |
& how do i read its output .... |

to output the kernel config, type:
cat /usr/src/linux/.config |

The right driver for your card is 8139too, so try to load it (as a root)
then start net
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start |
and check if network is working.
Your kernel config file could be find in /boot/ or /usr/src/linux/ directories ( .config or config-xxx file). |

| Quote: | | modprobe 8139too ( gives the output : FATAL : Module r8139 not found. ) |
I cant give my kernel output because its simply to big .. i cant cp it... i must write every output over to here.
(sonicbhoc)
I cant emerge lspci because i dont have a connection so i burnt it on a cd
And did | Quote: | | cp pciutils-2.2.0.tar.gz to /usr/portage/distfiles/ |
When i emerged it says... emerge : there are no ebuilds to satisfy "pciutils-2.2.0.tar.gz"
I cant find that ebuild file on http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/ if thats even the place where i must search it.
I did find dhcpcd-2.0.0.ebuild there & cp that to /usr/portage/distfiles/ and that workt ( see post: Sat Sep 09, 2006 11:27 am)

If you can not copy all your kernel config check only support for your card
| Code: | | cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep -i 8139 |
Btw did you compile any kernel earlier or it was yours first time? |

Doing | Quote: | | cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep -i 8139 |
Gives the output :
CONFIG_8139CP=y
CONFIG_8139TOO=y
# CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO is not set
# CONFIG_8139T00_TUNE_TWISTER is not set
# CONFIG_8139TOO_8129 is not set
# CONFIG_8139_OLD_RX_RESET is not set
Its the first time i compiled a kernel .... |

Maybe this is a problem
| Quote: | | # CONFIG_8139TOO_8129 is not set |
Try to set it up and build new kernel. Then boot with new one. I assume that you have set up network support and etc.
There is a guide from gentoo handbook http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=7. You can try use genkernel if you don't fell comfortable setting up everything by yourself.
Btw you don't need this for sure

Am building the new kernel.
I have started all over whit the guide ... the best thing to do i suppose.
for network i have done:
livecd etc # cd conf.d
livecd conf.d # echo 'config_eth0=( "192.168.123.123/22" )' >> net
livecd conf.d # echo 'routes_eth0=( "default via 192.168.123.254" )' >> net
livecd conf.d # rc-update add net.eth0 default
livecd conf.d # rc-update add sshd default
Am now at the point where i can emerge packages.
Are there any packages i should emerge besides pciutils before rebooting ?

If you build your driver into a kernel you don't have to do this
| Quote: | | livecd conf.d # echo r8139 >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6) |
This is necessary only if you build your driver like a module and want to load it at boot (beside the right name of the module is 8139too not r8139).
When you run menuconfig of your kernel remember to set
| Quote: | Device Drivers ---> Network device support --->
[*] Network device support
Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) --->
[*] Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
<*> Generic Media Independent Interface device support
[*] EISA, VLB, PCI and on board controllers
<*> RealTek RTL-8129/8130/8139 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support
[ ] Use PIO instead of MMIO │ │
[ ] Support for uncommon RTL-8139 rev. K (automatic channel equalization) │ │
[*] Support for older RTL-8129/8130 boards │ │
[ ] Use older RX-reset method |
Are you using genkernel ? |

livecd conf.d # echo r8139 >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6)
( I had already removed the line before pressing enter )
btw
lspci >> out.txt output:
RTL-8029(AS)
If genkernel is what appears with make menuconfig ...yes am using genkernel.
Done this:
| Quote: | Device Drivers ---> Network device support --->

[*] Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
<*> Generic Media Independent Interface device support <--- CAN NOT SELECT THIS ONE

[ ] Support for uncommon RTL-8139 rev. K (automatic channel equalization) │ │
[*] Support for older RTL-8129/8130 boards │ │
[ ] Use older RX-reset method |
And i finished the install ... after the reboot still no connection. |

Wirte in your /etc/conf.d/net
| Quote: | config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
fallback_eth0=( "192.168.123.123 netmask 255.255.255.0" )
fallback_routes_eth0=( "default gw 192.168.123.254" ) |
Do
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start |
Post output of
| Code: | | dmesg | grep -i eth0 |
and
| Code: | | dmesg | grep -i rtl |

It seems like we don't have the right driver for rtl-8029 card.
The best way to check the right one is to boot with livecd and see output of
and
| Code: | | dmesg | grep -i eth0 |
can you do that ? |

I found on the web that the driver for the rtl 8029 card is ne2k-pci not 8139too what I thought earlier (sorry by that). So you need in your kernel

<*> PCI NE2000 and clones support (see help) |
And you need to rebuild your kernel ones again =| |
