LinkSYS ethernet card under Linux
by Ashley T. Howes 30 Apr '01

30 Apr '01

I'm trying to get a LinkSYS PCI ethernet card (EtherFast 10/100 Lan Card) working in Linux. According to the instructions it use the tulip driver. I have assigned the tulip driver to the ethernet card, but when the tulip kernel module tries to startup it fails with "Device or resource busy". The machine with this card in is running Mandrake 7.0. Any hints, suggestions to get this ethernet card working? Ashley -- Dr Ashley T.

We've tested ircu, dalnet, cyclone and unreal, but I have to agree with Brett's recommendation. Unreal is almost certainly only popular because it allows opers to play evil tricks on users. -- MJR

What do people think? I think it would be a good >idea for us to have a meeting at least once a month. We used to have a meeting on the third Sunday of every month alternating between Syleham and UEA but all things ALUG tend to slip into the background when people are busy. I'm quite happy to host a meeting @ Syleham every other month again and maybe we can fill the gaps in with meets @ UEA/wherever. Comments? See you all tomorrow. Cheers, BJ

If replies are cc'd to the author, that will usually arrive before the copy from the list does. Messages themselves do not travel out of order, but sometimes local mail problems at your ISP can mean that mail 14 will arrive after mail 13 and things like that because of the retry intervals. > But we will be in the Hive bar of the Students union at the University > of East anglia, Norwich.

LinuxDay finale
by MJ Ray 29 Apr '01

29 Apr '01

I'm just panicking on two things really: a decent disclaimer and people. If anyone has thoughts on the former, please email me overnight so I can type it up, else I'll crib from wherever ;-) Oh, and I've a slight problem with debian CDs, so although I have images and should have more blanks tomorrow, if people are prepared to burn on the day, it would be a great help. -- MJR
