 |
|
My rig died a while ago, and I had to rebuild, which I did yesterday. The problem is that I don't know which drivers I need to build to have a full functional machine. I'm using a DFI Infinity Nf570-M2/G, which uses the Nforce 570 Ultra chipset. If I boot from the livecd, then everything works fine in the livecd environment. However, if I boot into my actual install, Gentoo bitches about not finding the correct network interface due to a missing driver. The sound doesn't work as well. Does anybody know which drivers I need to build?

just check with lspci and/or lsmod (the latter after booting off of the live cd) and you should be on your way.
