I am using D-Link DFE-530TX+ network card. But I cannot connect to Internet.
I use COMCAST cable as my ISP.



I tried both RH7.2 and RH7.3. In RH7.3, it seems more promising. The Linux
recognized the card automatically and add a line

alias eth0 8139too

to the /etc/modules.conf. I can see the 8139too module is loaded by "lsmod"
command.



However, when the system start up or when I issue "/etc/rc.d/../network
start" command, I got error when it tries to bring up eth0:

Determining IP information... [fail]



If I issue "ifconfig eth0 up" I got error:

SIOCSIFFLAGS: Device or resource busy.



I can ping 127.0.0.1, but if I ping other IP, I got "network is unreachable"
error.



In the /etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth0 file, I don't know if I have
to specify DHCP_HOSTNAME. I called Comcast for the name, they said it is
dynamic and they won't give out.



I also tried rtl8139.o driver.



Actually, the driver for linux in the installation floppy disk is rtl8139.c.
But it seems for RH6.0. I cannot make it compiled. I got updated rtl8139.c
from website and made it compiled. I can insmod pci-scan.o successfully.
However, when I insmod rtl8139.o, I got error:

init_module: No such device.

Hint: insmod error canbe caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters.



Can anyone give me help on this problem.



Thank you in advanced.
