Ahhh, I had the same problem when installing my 3c905 at work. This card is also known as the Boomerang. You'll see that name if you recompile the kernel. On my Debian CD which was 1.3.1, I believe - almost a year old, it did not have the 3c905 driver. I had to go out and get it. When I was recompiling the 2.0.34 kernel I'm pretty sure I saw it in there, so you could 1) go out and get a new kernel source and compile, or 2) get a newer kernel*.deb file and see if that has the driver. Sorry but I don't use the kernel*.deb packages, so I really don't know about that. I don't know of a way for you to get ethernet running with the 3c905 and only your current Debian CD. And I don't know anything about the NB2000. Mark Mabry [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
