4. The mainboard's LAN adapter

4.1 Making it work...

If your board came with the optional on-board LAN card, you have a Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 10/100 Fast Ethernet card, this card is supported by Linux kernels 2.4 and later (that I know of, as I only use 2.4 kernels).

To make it work you should type

modprobe sis900

and you should see something like this in your syslog: 


  sis900.c: v1.08.02 11/30/2001

  eth0: SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet at 0xd400, IRQ 5, 00:d0:09:ea:7a:98.

or type

dmesg | less and scroll to see the kernel messages.

If everything went fine, you may add sis900.o to /etc/modules so it will autoload everytime you boot:

echo "sis900" >> /etc/modules

or compile it in your kernel, where you should say Y to SiS 900/7016 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support in your kernel configuration.
