Using 1.4 rc2 to install gentoo on a thinkpad t40. I am unable to get linux to recognize the device.

net-setup eth0 and selecting dhcp (or specifying values) results in :

Code:

  SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
  eth0: unknown interface: No such device
  SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
  eth0: unknown interface: No such device
  SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device


I tried changing the irq setting in bios (all were set to 11 originally). There isn't an option to disable PnP in bios, which strikes me as odd.

So the kernel is incorrectly recognizing the network card as it should be e1000, not cs89x0. Anyone know how to fix this?

Requires a newer kernel - 2.4.20 or later.
