If I select the module manually for 3com 3C574 (the exact model is: 3CCFE574BT) same message appears. Using the official net installer for Sarge the autodetection works fine. I hope my information could help the community, and if you could send me suggestions I appreciate it. Thanks in advance. -- _________________ Juan Ramón Chan
