ShadowFoxLSU Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 Well I installed Fedora core on my laptop and I am planning on setting it up as a server, but unlike Mandrake 9.X, Fedora does not recognise my ethernet chipset. It's an HP Pavilion N5425 Laptop. Anyone have an idea on how to fix this small problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezroller Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 do you know what chipset you have exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 Well.. if you know what module it is, just modprobe it. Put the name of the module in /etc/modules so it starts during bootup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowFoxLSU Posted November 17, 2003 Author Share Posted November 17, 2003 After a little research, I found out what driver I should use with the ethernat card on my laptop. Luckly, the driver had been built into the kernal, but for some reason RH/Fedora doesnt have it listed. The driver's name is "tulip" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
