I have a IBM XSeries 205, and I put mandriva one 2009 on it.

I was instaling mandriva with the network cable on.

No error till know, but the internet connection doen't work.

I go to Network Center, and it said "unable to find network interface for selected device (using tg3 driver)" .

The network is like this, MODEM- ROUTER -SWITCH-IBM X Series 205 (this one).

If I put the Cable from switch to another PC wors great .

What should I do ?

Should I change the network card ?

 

No, what Scarecrow means is, that in konsole you have to write the last char as a ZERO, not as a o.

 

Open your konsole login as root, using the su command, write your root password when promt, then write or copy/paste

 ifconfig eth0

in to the konsole and hit enter. and paste the output in here :-)

The result for : ifconfig -a is :

You don't have any network interface in your machine. This can happen for one of a few reasons.

 

1. The module is not loaded.

2. The modue doesn't support your network card.

3. Your kernel doesn't have a module for your network card.

 

so, please provide results from:

 

lsmod | grep tg3

 

as well as:

 

lspci

 

so we can see the information for your network card.
