Networking :: Netcard help (wired)



Hey dsl forums, I've booted up the ole laptop running dsl, but I cant seem to configure my netcard, it is a brand new dynex dx-e201. I am running a toshiba pertege 7010ct, which has a pentium 2. I plug in the card, and when the pcmcia manager starts up, the lights on the card start to flash as if it were working, but when i go to the netcardconfig, it says failed when I do the DHCP broadcasting option, but hwen I manually input the data, it  tries to send packets, but it says that it failed. Any suggestions? and so you know, it isnt the latest distro of DSL.
Please paste the results of lspci and lsmod (enter those commands at prompt in aterm) here.

8139too should be the proper module for that card.

EDIT: I had the wrong driver in mind. I have a card I thought was DFE-690TXD but it's Tulip, which works flawlessly with Linux (and everything else I've tried it with).
Are you using sudo pump -i eth0?
