I'd be very grateful if you would.* I have some new Hawk PCs (Pentium-III) with D-Link DFE-570TX Fast Ethernet 4-port server adapters. When I build the machines using Red Hat's standard 6.2 installer, it automatically finds the de4x5.o driver module, inserts it into the kernel (which is 2.2), and sets up four Ethernet interfaces using that driver. Unfortunately, when I build the 2.4 kernel (which I must do because I need Netfilter), I can't get the card to work. * I've tried inserting the old de4x5.o module that came with 2.2, but there are unmatched symbols. * I've tried inserting the new de4x5.o module that came with 2.4 in drivers/net, but it either complains of no such device, I/O error, or "couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for". * I've tried configuring the kernel with the 3c590/3c900, {DEPCA, DE10x, DE200, DE201, DE202, DE422}, Tulip (dc21x4x), Generic DECchip, and VIA Rhine chips, but it doesn't seem to help, whether they're included as modules or compiled into the kernel. I've downloaded the latest Tulip driver but haven't tried it yet. * I've spent many hours trying to get this to work, and my manager is getting desparate. Do you have any ideas?
