I am about to give up as the linux support for the network adapter(Intel PRO/100 VE Desktop Adapter) seems poor. I've tried unsuccesfully both the Intel driver v1.6.39 and Becker's driver at <A href="http://www.scyld.com/network/" target="_blank">http://www.scyld.com/network/</A><BR /><BR />I'm using the new distro 7.3 from Suse, but Suse admit it is incompatible with SuSE 7.3. ( as an aside HP need to update their site on this). <BR /><BR />My question is: has anyone here got another linux distribution working on this model without too much tinkering ?<BR /> <BR /> <BR /><BR /> Tue, 27 Nov 2001 11:44:07 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/e-pc-40-as-a-server/m-p/2620662#M89700 ian_19 2001-11-27T11:44:07Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-linux/e-pc-40-as-a-server/m-p/2620663#M89701 An update on this, Mandrake 8.1 installed without any network card problems.<BR /><BR />Suse says there software should be fine, but for whatever reason I couldn't get the network card running..
