Hello,
I have been trying to get my Intel EtherExpress 100 16 bits card to work for while now without sucess. I would appreciate any ideas of what I could try to resolve my problem I am Running Redhat v6.1 on a IBM ThinkPad 600e. The tests I have conducted were with version 2.2.12 and 2.2.14 of the linu Kernel. I am using pcmcia 3.0.14 package. From what I see the pcmcia package is functionning correctly I hear the usual beeps for insertion and removal of cards from the pcmcia sockets. The scripts for initting the Ethernet card functions properly also I have tried the pcmcia default scripts as well as using the modification to conserve the Redhat init mechanism. When I insert the card I the proper module is loaded xirc2ps_cs.o. I have specifying direct IP related information and have also tried DHCP. If I specify the IP and net info myself the interface eth0 is setup properly and if I ifconfig I get the proper output. When using DHCP the interface is not mounted and an error is reported in /var/log/messages. When setting the IP address and net information directly I tried to ping computers on the locl subnet without success I receive Network Unreachable messages. I also notice that the card does not show activity though the dongle leds. Here is a terminal log of hopefully usefulll information:
