no network card shownForum: Networking Topic: no network card shown started by: wolf510 Posted by wolf510 on Nov. 07 2006,00:53
What do I do if my network card is not shown and I can not connect to the network? I have tried both netcardconfig and DSL/PPPoE but neither of them can find my card. It is also not shown in the hardware tab of the system sats menu. I am connected through a lan to a linksys router that is connected to a cable modem. my network works perfect on my SUSE 10.1 distro so I figured it should work with DSL.

What network card chipset/model do you have?Try using `lspci -v` Posted by skaos on Nov. 07 2006,11:17
and then run lsmod to see if the corresponding module for the network card is loaded.

not sure if this is the info you need but I believe it is anElitegroup CK804 Ethernet Controller and the IP is assigned with DHCP and the device name is eth-id-00:14:2a:a7:70:43 This is all from the network device tab of my SUSE 10.1 distro. Posted by skaos on Nov. 09 2006,10:47
Open an Xterm in suse and run lspci and lsmod, and find out which module suse is using for the network card. Do the same in DSL and check if the module is loaded. If not, load the module with modprobe and run netcardconfig or pump.

I have a similar question regarding net connectivity. In Gentoo 2006.1 lsmod shows the module used by via_velocity(via gigabit ethernet) is crc_ccitt. The crc_ccitt module is not shown in lspci in DSL. How would I load this module? Posted by saitorian on Nov. 14 2006,08:36
netcardconfig shows No supported network cards found.

To check if the module is included in DSL: find /lib/modules -name *crc*

using find there is no crc_ccitt module in DSL. will I need to retrieve that module from gentoo and load it in DSL?
