It's called kmod-ax88179_178a and is in the elrepo testing repository for el6. You can find it here: http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el6/ I would appreciate if you could let me know how it works for you, Hope that helps. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
