Hi,
I just can’t install it (I can’t see it under ifconfig -a; kernel 2.68.35-11). I’m only basic linux user so any help would be appriciated. Beside this, there is problem of finding linux drivers for this card. Can enyone help? Thx
What did you try till now?
What is the output of lspci and dmesg commands regarding ethernet card?
what distribution you are using and did you compile kernel with drivers yourself? If you are basic user, best option would be to choose simple Linux distribution that require little or no user intervention in critical parts of OS, such as kernel and drivers.
Hi,
I manage to start it up, but now I have lot of inputs in my syslog:

Is this normal or…?
I’m using Ubuntu server 11.04. Kernel: 2.6.38-11-server.
No I didn’t compile kernel with drivers.
Janisk, what distribution do you recomend for me to use? I thought that Ubuntu is best way to go…
