Network Module wont load.

<< < (2/4) > >>

voidmain:
Yes, and probably has something to do with your network card not working. You didn't happen do do an "upgrade" install of RedHat 8.0 did you?

Master of Reality:
nope... I did a full isntall, and the only thing i touched since install was XF85Config.

voidmain:
That's very strange. RH8 must not like your MOBO/Chipset for some reason. And that's unusual in my experiences with RedHat. Let me check over bugzilla some more, is there anything else that doesn't work?  Could you post the output of a "dmesg" right after a fresh reboot?

Master of Reality:
output from dmesg after rebooting and tryin modprobe sis900 and getting the same error as above

voidmain:
Notice the line that says "System does not support PCI"?  That don't look good. Can you give me a description of this machine? The motherboard in particular, chipset etc..
