hi amit,

if lspci does'nt show ur ethernet controller then there is a problem with the probing done
by ur PC's PCI sub-system, cos this shud have detected ur card, and even if ur driver is not
compiled/present it wud not help b'cos as far as ur PC is concerned ther's no Realtek card!!!


r u sure the card is not faulty, u can try another PC/OS to acertain that.

Hi,

I have tried other pci slots too. it is standard 9.0 kernel, i did not
switch off any options during compilation.

thanks
Amit

I have a LAN card with realtek 8139C and it works fine. Linux shud detect it during boot time unless u've turned of that feature off during kernel compilation!

u can try another PCI slot and see if gets detected

Hi,


 I face a similar problem with my LAN card, I bought a realtek pci lan
card, but lspci doesnt detect a ethernet controller even when i plug it
into one of my pci slots, i use redhat 9.0, kernel version 2.4.20-8. Any
clues ?

thanks
Amit

My motherboard (Asus P4P800 Dlx) has an ICH5/5R controller hub that includes, amongst many other things, a Serial ATA controller.

lspci fails to list the device.

The "unusual" fact here is that there are no SATA disk drives connected to
the SATA controller. However, I would still expect that the SATA controller
would be recognized.

Why is not being found by the kernel PCI initialization code that finds PCI
devices?
Is it because,
1: The motherboard BIOS sees no connected hard drives and "hides" it; or
2: The SATA controller chip sees no connected hard drives and "hides"
itself; or
3: The kernel PCI init code sees no connected hard drives and skips it.
(AFAICT the kernel is NOT doing this) or
4: something else.

If there is anyone else out there, who has a SATA controller but no SATA
disks, do you see the controller in lspci?

Cheers Grant
