Hey all,

Been doing some google search for some time to get my system going. I could not find a thing. Here's the relevant output from lscpi -vnn:

 

09:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller [10ec:8136] (rev 02)

Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:02b8]

Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 27

I/O ports at de00

Memory at f6aff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable)

Memory at f0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable)

[virtual] Expansion ROM at f0020000 [disabled]

Capabilities: <access denied>

Kernel driver in use: r8169

Kernel modules: r8169

 

0c:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)

Subsystem: Device [1a32:0112]

Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17

Memory at f6cf0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable)

Capabilities: <access denied>

Kernel driver in use: ath5k

Kernel modules: ath5k

 

 

I just want to know if it is possible to enable any of these devices or are these devices not supported yet? I tried the rtl10000r opensource driver but that gives me a kernel panic stating i have to link the kext to the new kernel and I have no idea how to do that.

 

 

Please help! A computer without Internet sucks!

 

 

Thanks
