After having had a look into the logfile and glancing
at following output:
[root@localhost /root]# insmod fa311
Using /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/net/fa311.o
[root@localhost /root]#
I was happy again! Your card works absolutely
fine!!! That's why I asked for the logfiles
some more output. It makes life so much easier.
Ok, configure your network and then you can
start working with your linux box and don't
need to write with outlook express anymore.
How does this sound? ;)

Pretty old for lvs, you should probably upgrade.
Some other redhat users will certainly help you
and provide you with the links to the appropriate
rpm's to upgrade.

It's not but this is another story. See the uname -r
output: 2.2.14-5.0

That's what the logfile showed me. So you see, sending
all information you can about a problem helps people
trying to help you track down the problem faster and
then there is more time left for a good beer! (joe?)

After visiting the ultimative linux network driver page:
http://www.scyld.com/network/tulip.html
Ethercards reported to use the DEC Tulip chips
Many Ethernet adapter cards use the Tulip chip.
The list grows so rapidly that it's impossible
to keep up to date, but here are cards that I
have received reports on:
...
Netgear FX310 TX 10/100
21140AE, tested with 0.87.
Yours is a FA311, but I think this should work.
You can try to configure the kernel to use the
tulip ethernet module.
if you want to continue to use your self-compiled
fa311.o module and make it reboot-safe, you can
add a line into /etc/conf.modules like:
alias eth0 fa311
But if the redhat kernel is compiled user-friendly,
the module will automatically be loaded if you
do a 'ifconfig eth0 <someIP> up'
that's it, you're done. hook up the net and
configure the director! Be sure to read the
excellent HOWTO.
