I briefly read the cable modem HOWTO, but the lsmod didn't list my network card (3COM). What do I do now? (4 Replies)

IY(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual IY(4)
NAME
iy -- Intel EtherExpress PRO/10 Ethernet driver (Intel i82595)
SYNOPSIS
iy0 at isa? port {port} irq ?
DESCRIPTION
The iy device driver supports the EtherExpress PRO/10 card, and might support other ISA cards using the same chip.
MEDIA SELECTION
The different models of the supported boards come with some subset of RJ-45, BNC and AUI connectors. Supported media include:
AUI/DIX Standard 15 pin connector
10Base2 BNC, also known as thin-net
10BaseT UTP, also known as twisted pair
The default port to use is the port the card autodetects at ifconfig up time. To choose an alternative port, an explicit medium can be spec-
ified to ifconfig(8) or in your ifconfig.iy? file.
NOTES
The EtherExpress PRO card has no jumpers to set the address. Intel supplies software to set the address of the card in software. You have
to hardwire this address in your kernel configuration file.
SEE ALSO
ed(4), eg(4), el(4), ep(4), intro(4), ix(4), le(4), ifconfig(8)
STANDARDS
are great. There's so many to choose from.
