<div dir="ltr"><div>If you pass along the NIC adapter information we can attempt to help you find the driver module you need, from there I think (never had to do this before) you should be able to just perform a modprobe to add the module in. As I said I've never had to do it before but I've added kernal modules for filesystems without recompiling.<br>

<br>The desktop hardware just crapped out. We tried to move the harddrive into another computer but ran into configuration issues... we can't get the kernal to recognize the ethernet adapter to connect to our network and give us an IP so we can update the terminal software access script. <br>
<br>The job to me sounds easy, but for some reason people are not able to help. I've been told that we need to add the specific driver module for the ethernet adapter to the linux kernel and recompile. This is fine, but then we need the existing accounting software to still be installed or to be reinstalled.<br>
