Comment 1 Arjan van de Ven 2002-04-10 08:44:58 UTC

Can you please try the sis900_old driver in 2.4.9-31 ?
If that works I'll put that in 2.4.18 as well

Comment 2 Mark Lane 2002-04-10 15:23:13 UTC

I had tried 2.4.9-31 before installing the new beta. It as well doesn't work. We had it working with 
2.4.9-21 on another system so I am going to try that driver but I probably won't get to that until 
late tonight or tomorrow.

Comment 3 Mark Lane 2002-04-13 16:30:08 UTC

It turns out that the nic did not like the network cable. Which is somewhat
funny because the same cable works with my 3COM card.
