Hi Kelly, You are right, according to the GENERIC config file, its the pn driver that should be used for PNIC cards like the LNE100TX. So, the next silly question is how to get the kernel to stop using the wrong (al) driver. This is not a working system, just a clean install during which the kernel is defaulting to the al driver. Any hints? - Drew > Greetings :) > > If I'm not mistaken, you're using the wrong driver for the LNE100TX.
