>From my experience, 3com is generally a good choice in NICs for RH releases
going way back. However the gigabit cards are somewhat newer to me. Might
check the BIOS for enabling the onboard NIC.

The sound card might be ok. Run kudzu first to see if it finds it. If it
does then you're ok. If not, check the BIOS to ensure that the sound card is
enabled. Usually there is a sound blaster option/onboard or external.
Restarting the machine runs kudzu on init.

If configuration of the sound card is needed, after it has been detected,
run "sndconfig" and answer the prompts. There are dependencies for the sound
onfiguration rpms....can't remember them all offhand.

I don't think you're screwed. A $30 3com card will fix any
non-compatibilities. I consisder ASUS a really good board.

Which processor configuration (370 or other) do you have? If it's the new
stuff, might be ahead of the kernel curve.

Subject: Redhat 9 / Asus P4P800 - LAN and sound not working


I just built my own system with a asus p4p800 board. It works... but the
intergrated 3com gigabit LAN and on board SoundMAX audio are not working
on them and I cannot find any information on it other than the intel
chipset on the board is supported
I'd appreciate any help at all from you all on the list, even if it's to
tell me I'm screwed.

And if anybody knows if it's gonna be supported in the next version of
redhat or an upcomming/updated kernel I'd appreciate hearing from you
Thanks for your time
Geoffrey
