: i have just installed debian on my machine, however the : network is "unreachable." i have an smc with a 21041 : dec-chipset on it. the module (tulip) was added without any : problem upon installation. however when i rebooted the system : i get these errors:
This reminds me at the "cable not connected" problem that we have with a new smc 8432BT EtherPower PCI card, sized just 70mm x 100mm, connected to BNC. The net works ok with another, 1 year old card, and this new mini card has worked too for about 1 month. With ezstart the loopback test fails, even on a 2m cable, terminated with 2 resistors. The generated and received electrical signals look ok (observed with a digital scope), but the card doesn't be happy with them. We called for a new one.
