SV: network cards

SV: network cards

[Gustafsson Kristoffer (elev)]

Hello!
Ok, I've gotten the card workingnow, but I have a problem.
I can't install any rpm package, because it says that it cannot find the package database.
I know that  the kernel that comes with redhat has intel cards as loadable modules.
So my option is to solve this or to find that loadable module.
Can you tell me how to fix the problem, or the name  of the module?
thanks!

Kristoffer,

Intel cards work just fine. All kernels in 2.4 and 2.6 support Intel
chips.

I se Intel chips all the time on mid to high level servers. We use
Redhat and special version of Linux with no problems. Make sure you have
Intel pro1000 and not e100, i.e. you need to match the correct driver
with the card. Different chips use different drivers. Also, there are
two drivers for e100 so you might want to try one or the other.
