hello all!!
I have 2.4.30 kernel on a mandrake 9.1 machine.
I have Intel gigabyte chipset motherboard with on board LAN. The nework driver is Broadcom 5780.
During installation mandrake 9.1 was unable to detect my network card. Later I downloaded driver from broadcom site and installed it. The driver is installed as a module bcm5700.o
in lsmod i can see the driver. but it shows bcm5700.o unused.
when i restart the machine and give lsmod it does not give anything.
Now after instaling network driver should i not be able to access my eth0 interface?
#ifconfig shows only loopback interface in the list.
pavan.
