Greetings,

Slackware 10 kernel 2.4.26

At last I will get tomorrow a broadband connection. The company which puts it 
up informed me yesterday to buy a LAN card.

Which I did today: CNet PRO200 100/10Mbps Fast Ethernet PCI-Bus Adapter.

On the enclosed floppy in the package is a driver for Linux cnpro2~1.gz

Where do I copy that driver to on my HD and what in the kernel will I have to 
do to make things work for a broadband connection using make xconfig.

This is a very new system here working over micro waves and I assume the 
people installing it might not know Linux.

I am quite excited getting away from my slow modem connection with average 
speeds of 1.5 KB/sec also via micro waves so I hope I can make things work 
with the help from this great list.

Thanks & regards
