I'm sorry if this has been covered. I went back 8 or 9 months in the archive and saw nothing related to it, so I figured I'd try to ask. I've got an old(er) Toshiba 2515CDS and a nice, shiny new D0Link DFE-690TXD pcmcia ethernet card. The 690 uses the realtek driver and for the most part it works like a charm aside from the fact that I can't get a network connection. Hooray! The system is running Debian 3.0r1 fresh install (and I can blow it away if I need to). With pcmcia started and the card in I get a link light and can see broadcast traffic flashing the card LED. I get device eth0 and can manually assign it network params using ifconfig, though even when correct it says the network is unreachable. When I insert the card, I get the error: PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 15:00:0. Please try using pci=biosirq. When I load the module for the realtek driver, I get the following: 81389too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.24 PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 15:00:0. Please try using pci=biosirq. Eth0: D-Link DFE-690TXD (RealTek RTL8139) at 0xc304a000, 00:0d:88:22:a0:8d, IRQ 0 Installation Succeeded. This tells me the card is recognized and loaded, but I think I've got an IRQ conflict. What parameters can I pass the module when loading to clear this up? Or what did I do wrong? I'm not totally new to this, so techie answers are fine. I'm just plain stuck. Any advice, solutions, links, insight, anything would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
