3com NIC Card

[r]

Just wondering if someone can tell me how to install a network card using
the corel linux os. The card is a 3com 3c509b-tpo. Just directions to
installing any card would be great.

Thanks
Rob

The 3c509 is well supported, there is even a Linux based config
utility. You can of course also use the DOS based utility
available from 3Com.

Do you have to add the IRQ and IO-Adress to the /etc/modules.conf also???

Use the 3c59x module.

use the 3c509 module.

when I put io and irq information the driver didn't work, go figure.
the driver should auto detect

I'm using rh6.2 but i think the driver is the same for most distros.
