Are you using the latest kernel? (2.6.17) 2. Does the card show up in lspci? 3. Have you also compiled in the proper drivers for your motherboard like dma for your mb? I'm not a guru on hardware drivers, so you still might have more luck on the gentoo-forums. 1. Are you using the latest kernel? (2.6.17)

Code:

eth0 does not exist

now i’m using the integrated Marvell Yukon Gigabit nic integrated into my asus k8vsedx and there are 2 options when compiling the kernel under networking support -> ethernet (1000mb). one is deprecated and one is experimental. i’ve tried marking both with a “*” and neither of them have worked…

i’m using the instructions for recompiling and installing the kernel found here. i’m manually confguring so section 7.c is what im using .

any advice?

edit: i’ve also downloaded a bz2 file from syskonnect.com for the nic but i don’t know exactly where to extract it. i know i’d have to modularize it in menuconfig and probably add it to the /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6.12-gentoo-r4 file right?
