Putting a few things together here: 1) Adaptec networking is the result of them buying Cogent 2) That looks like a Cogent EM-100FX (now called Adaptec ANA6910FX?) 3) If so, the card uses the DEC 21140-AC chipset 4) It should be supported by the "de" device standard in the kernel. 5) If it is DEC based, but does not work with the default driver, you can try the alternate "de" driver from: ftp://www.3am-software.com/de-970703.tar.gz I may be totally off the wall here. Any other idears? Kevin
