In the meantime I installed the kernel sources on redhat 7.3 (kernel 2.4.18.3), downloaded pci-scan.c ... and tried to compile the new downloaded driver from scyld again with no success. I could find out, that redhat 7.3 originally uses 3c59x.o Version LK 1.1.16 with which I could not get a network connection. Suse 7.2 with 3c59x.o version LK 1.1.13 (27.1.2001) worked well with my network chip. Michael Michael Wisse wrote: > > I updated linux on my notebook.
