Network Card Help
I have been having trouble with my sis900 neytwork card in slacwkare linux. I tried to modprobe the sis900, it didnt give me any errors but it didnt load it. so I put in a realtek 8139 network card and tried it too. These are the errors i get with the two cards when trying to do insmod on either of them:. I would much prefer if i could get my sis900 working, it works fine in redhat using the sis900 module.
i put in a realtek 8139 card and tried it. this is the error i got when doing "insmod 8139too":
Using /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o.gz
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o.gz: unresolved symbol mii_ethtool_sset

/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o.gz: unresolved symbol mii_nway_restart
the error i got from doing "insmod sis900":
Using /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.o.gz
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.o.gz: init_module: No such device
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.o.gz: Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
is there anyway to fix either of these?

EX(4) BSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual EX(4)
NAME
ex -- Ethernet device driver for the Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 and Pro/10+
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file:
device ex
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
if_ex_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The ex driver provides support for Ethernet adapters based on the Intel i82595 chip.
On the ISA bus, the card will be searched for in the I/O address range 0x200 - 0x3a0. The IRQ will be read from the EEPROM on the card. For
correct operation Plug-N-Play support should be disabled.
On the PC Card bus, the card will be automatically recognized and configured.
HARDWARE
The ex driver supports the following Ethernet adapters:
o Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 ISA
o Intel EtherExpress Pro/10+ ISA
o Olicom OC2220 Ethernet PC Card
o Olicom OC2232 Ethernet/Modem PC Card
o Silicom Ethernet LAN PC Card
o Silicom EtherSerial LAN PC Card
DIAGNOSTICS
ex%d: Intel EtherExpress Pro/10, address %6D, connector %s The device probe found an installed card, and was able to correctly install the
device driver.
ex%d: WARNING: board's EEPROM is configured for IRQ %d, using %d The device probe detected that the board is configured for a different
interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.
ex%d: invalid IRQ. The device probe detected an invalid IRQ setting.
SEE ALSO
arp(4), netintro(4), ng_ether(4), ifconfig(8)
HISTORY
The ex device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 2.2.
AUTHORS
The ex device driver was written by Javier Martin Rueda. The PC Card attachment was written by Mitsuru ISAWAKI and Warner Losh. This manual
page was written by David E. O'Brien.
BUGS
Currently the driver does not support multicast.
The Silicom EtherSerial card's serial port does not currently work. The Olicom OC2232 PC Card should work with the ex driver, but is cur-
rently completely broken.
