Hello,
I tried 2.6.10 vanilla kernel on an TP600e and I was amused.
However, even after an evening long search, I am unable to get an
RTL8139C card running.
Should it be possible, or is there really no way yet?
I used to compile it from Donald Becker's drivers for 2.4.x.
As for now I got to the facts, that (right?):
* There is no driver for 8139 in the PCMCIA network driver section
of kernel configuration.
* I can't use pcmcia-cs with Becker's standalone driver because
pcmcia-cs compiles only userspace utility programs.
* I can't use the PCI version until there is a wrapper for it
to work with PCMCIA (or it at least alike in 2.4).
Am I overlooking something obvious or is it necessary to
write the driver?
Thanks for an answer
Vaclav Stepan
