I can't remember if my Accton EN1207D-TX-WOL card was labelled as 'Cheetah', but I managed to get it working using a kernel module downloaded from Accton's site itself. The box the card came in said that it supported Linux, but they didn't even bother to put the Linux kernel module and source on the install disk! Weird...

Thanks, works like a dream. (The "Quick Installation Guide" claimed it was an EN1207D, which according to the Ethernet Howto should use de4x5 or tulip, so I tried those with all combinations of parameters I could think off... Should this be reported as a "bug" in the howto's? Also, that is IMHO the meanest part of the debian install - determining which network card module to load for a network install. (Doesn't linux autodetect this kind of thing once fully setup? Can this kind of functionality not be included in the installation disks?)) Hugo van der Merwe
