I'm using the 2.2.14 kernel on an Asus k7V mb(Athlon), and have compiled
into the kernel the ES1371 sound driver. On bootup the card is detected at
irq 10 and a memory address of 0x9000 (which does NOT happen with the
ES1370 driver).

Sorry, but I cannot figure out how to get mail to other people on our LAN
using exim. Those I send are booted back saying they don't exist on my
machine. Mail should go to a server, but it treats all with the same domain
as being on my machine. Have gone through the manual but I guess I'm blind.

tr0.
Thanks for any help/thoughts!

I am frustrated with trying to use dhcpcd... after it hooks up with our
network, my machine becomes UNKNOWN_27 instead of kvaughan. The hostname is
correctly set up if I keep dhcpcd from starting up. Can someone tell me how
to fix this? I've even tried using HOSTNAME='cat /etc/hostna

Installing a 2.2.9 kernel in place of 2.0.36 kills my network card and
connections, since the card is a token ring (Olicom). This card is ID'd as
eth0 under the old kernel, but the 2.2.x kernels use tr0. So the problem
doesn't surprise me. But I'd obviously like to get it working again.
