Pain999 Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 (edited) I have a ECS L7VTA (KT400 chipset) that I can't get any NIC card or the onboard ethernet to work with Mandrake 10.0. It works fine with Suse, Knoppix and Windows so I know it physically works but no matter how I try to configure Mandrake it won't work. Using a cable modem with a Linksys router and trying to set it up with DHCP. I have even tried disabling the onboard NIC and tried two other NIC cards but nothing seems to be able to get to the internet so it must be the motherboard. Mandrake seems fine with my other Nforce2 mobos, but for some reason it does not like this L7VTA. Anyone been able to get the LAN working with this mobo and Mandrake? This is my ifcfg-eth0 file: Device = eth0 BootProto = dhcp Onboot = yes MII_NOT_Supported = 0 Wireless_ENC_Key = "" NeedHostName = yes Edited July 8, 2004 by Pain999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streeter Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 Haven't tried this MoBo, but find it pretty unlikely that it won't work with mdk - more likely to be our old friend a 'wizard problem'. Have a look at the sticky post at the top of the networking forum and take it from there. Let us know how you get on. Post output from ifconfig if still having probs.
