It's 11 May 97 01:59, We'll return to mbourna@ibm.net and All's discussion of ethernet cards - experience? mb> The SKY2000 cards are in and working great with both Win95 and Linux. mb> BTW for those who are interested - my old Red Hat 3.0 (kernel 1.2.13) mb> found the cards at boot time - no problems with the NIC probe ! I've never had problems with any OS finding NE2000 clones, except OS/2, which doesn't support them out of the box (you have to get the right drivers off the Net). Linux behaves well, despite all the potential problems the Ethernet howto mentions. ... If you live life on the "cutting edge," expect to bleed a lot. -- | Fidonet: Tony Langdon 3:632/367.2 | Internet: tlang@freeway.DIALix.oz.au | | Freeway Internet Gateway, Melbourne, Australia.
