trouble getting NIC working...

m4trix

I've installed FC4 on an older machine but I can't seem to get ethernet card to work. It's a 3Com Etherlink III 3c509B. I've seen several sites that say it works. . . but none that really explain how to do it.

Problems installing Mandriva 2006 RC2

ale_mza

Hi, I've just downloaded Mandriva 2006 RC2, and I have the same two problems I had when I tried to install Mandriva 10. 1. I have an Asus P4P800, with a Pentium 4 2. 8Ghz, 512 mb and an ATI 9800 XT. I burned the Iso images to cdrw, and tried to install from there.

Dell 9200 Laptop, Fedora Core 4, ipw2200 and sound problems

jhopper

This is a problem that I have not been able to figure out on my own so far. I ran Fedora Core 3 on this 9200 laptop previously, and could not get the internal wifi NIC to work. I thought I would have better luck in FC4, but instead I still can't get the internal wifi NIC to work AND I have lost sound as well.

odd problem.

Hello, My problem is that my computer in a way will up and freeze but will not shut off. More how a dying Power Supply would do; but when this happens nothing really shuts off, just freezes constantly until i manually restart it.
