My network card wasn't recognised
HI



I'm using red hat 7.0 and i've tried to find my network card, because it wasn't recognised at install time.

I issued this commands "modprobe ne" and "modprobe 3c59x"
and i got the message
/lib/modules/2.2.16-22/net/ne.0: insmod failed.

At this point i suppose to get this " alias eth0 ne # or 3c59x"wright?
instead the one above that i've just mentioned.

And i left this just like that.

Now later on i did open "netcfg" and on the interfaces windows it says that "eth0 192*** * * inactive"
when i try to activate, still came up with this " same as the above"

any sugestion please

best regards.

discover-modprobe.conf(5)					File Formats Manual					 discover-modprobe.conf(5)

NAME

       discover-modprobe.conf -- configuration file for discover-modprobe(5)

Description
       discover-modprobe.conf is the configuration file for discover-modprobe, which is responsible for retrieving and loading kernel modules.

	      Warning:

	      This file is a shell script, and as such is subject to a string variable assignment syntax. No space is allowed between the variable
	      name, the equal (=) sign, and the value(s) assigned. If multiple values are to be assigned, the list must  be  space-delimited  with
	      surrounding quotes.

       Two directives can be used in this file: types and skip. Both can be defined multiple times.

       types	 This describes the classes of hardware that should be scanned and queried.

       skip	 These	modules  should never be loaded. See the ``Files'' section for details on the mechanism for generating these entries auto-
		 matically.

Files
       /var/lib/discover/crash
		 A crash file written and erased each time discover-modprobe attempts to load a module. If  the  file  lingers,  the  computer	is
		 assumed  to have crashed while loading that module, and the module name is added to discover-modprobe.conf as a module to skip in
		 the future.
