Hi,

The ne2000 driver comes in two pieces. Do the following:

insmod 8390
insmod ne io=0x300 irq=15

Make sure you use the actual i/o address and irq of your ne2000 card.

> When I  tried to insmod ne.o, It gives out 'unresolved symbols' message. I

This is because the 8390 module didn't get loaded before loading the ne
module.

> Also I cannot run 'pwlconfig' as I  don't have 'lxdialog' in SuSE
> distribution.

Make sure you have the kernel sources installed. cd into your kernel
sources directory ('/usr/src/linux') and do a 'make menuconfig'. This will
create the lxdialog in '/usr/src/linux/scripts/lxdialog' (taking from
memory and I might have missspelled the path).

Hope this helps,
Adi
