Anybody can tell me how to download Dlink DFE-538TX driver for RedHat 7.0? If it is possible. Please tell me step by step. I am the new one for RedHat.

The DFE-538TX actually just uses the Realtek 8139 chip just like many other network cards do. The driver you need is rtl8139. This driver is already present in Redhat. If you are using the newer kernel 2.4.x then a better version of this driver has been added called 8139too. To get your machine to recognize this card at boot make the following changes. edit the file /etc/modules.conf and add the following lines: alias eth0 rtl8139 options rtl8139 io=0x300 irq=10 If you have a pci network card then the last line is not necessary. If you have windows installed you could check which io and irq is used by windows and copy the same values. add the following line to the file /etc/sysconfig/network: NETWORKING=yes Now create or edit the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and make it look like this: DEVICE=eth0 IPADDR=x.x.x.x NETMASK=y.y.y.y ONBOOT=yes Substitute the x.x.x.x and y.y.y.y for valid ip adresses. If you use DHCP to obtain a IP adres then substitute the two middle lines for the line: BOOTPROTO=dhcp Also make sure you have the package dhcpcd installed and are running it on boot. To make sure it starts on boot run the following command: chkconfig dhcpcd on If you did all that then your card should be recognized when you boot up. You can always check it with the command "ifconfig eth0". Mik
