Redhat 9 network config
I'm a total noob to linux.
I have an HP EN1207D-TX PCI 10/100 Fast Ethernet Adapter that runs fine with winxp(of course).
My system is a 600 mhz celeron running 256 mb.
I have installed redhat 9 with kernal 2.4.20(thats what it says on the box).
I've tried using network config to pick my card(or closest to it) on the list; none work.
On the startup screen when redhat boots I see there too that any eth0, eth1 or whatever fail to intialize.
I connect through dhcp.
I've tried looking for drivers and haven't had much luck.
Even if i got a driver that would work, I wouldn't know how to install it unless someone specifically instructed me.
I have read some linux doc's and I have concluded it to be a driver issue.
I have considered just buying a new network card off ebay or going to salvation army and pulling one from an old system but i would like to get mine to work if possible.
Would It be possible to write a driver for this card or do you need exclusive information from HP?
I Sincerely thank those that attemp to help me.
