help on installing rtl8139 driver

Hi all,

I=92m using redhat linux 8.0 kernel 2.4.18-14, and Im trying to install t=
he=20
drivers for the rtl8139 NIC. I got lost and the last stage, here is what =
I=20
did:

1)        downloaded the rtl8139.c source code
2)        downloaded the pci-scan.c, pci-scan.h, and kern_compat.h (put t=
hem=20
all
together in the same directory)
3)        Execute the following commands as root:
gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -O6 -c rtl8139.c -I/usr/src/linux-2.4/include=20
-include /usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/modversions.h

then

gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -O6 -c pci-scan.c -I/usr/src/linux-2.4/include=20
-include /usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/modversions.h

Compilation successful, got the rtl8139.o and scan-pci.o files.

4) Then execute:
insmod pci-scan.o
which went good, got no messages at all

But when executing
insmod rtl8139.o

got the following:
>rtl8139.o: init_module: No such device
>Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, includ=
ing=20
>invalid IO or IRQ parameters.      You may find more information in sysl=
og=20
>or the output from dmesg

Note: at this point my modules.conf file has the line "alias eth1 rtl8139=
"

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Rommel
