Ah, ok. Is r8169 a module, or statically-linked? If module, look in /etc/modules. That's where I put forcedeth. Also, peek around /etc/modules.conf, especially down towards the bottom in the /etc/modutils/arch/i386 section. - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA "I'm not a vegetarian because I love animals, I'm a vegetarian because I hate vegetables!" unknown -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHllydS9HxQb37XmcRAmMAAKCt08TpXp9TFWIKYETDN2fU+y3UnwCfbe0d 46eAY6iv4prnABckXiQ/tfY= =kJ00 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
