******* This document contains instructions on Linux driver installation for ******* ******* 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter ******* The Linux driver for Myson MDT8xx compatible MAC chipset on this adapter has been embedded into Linux systems since kernel version 2.4.5, and this makes this adapter automatically detected and installed with the driver supported by Linux system. Therefore, 1. If your Linux kernel is still old version 2.2.x, please use and refer the driver supported for kernel version 2.2.x in \Linux\2.2.x directory on the driver diskette. 2. If your Linux kernel is version 2.4.x previous than version 2.4.5, please get the latest kernel file from the web site of The Linux Kernel Archives (http://www.kernel.org/). Then, install and re-compile the downloaded latest kernel file into your current Linux system. 3. If your Linux kernel is or has been patched to version above 2.4.5 but you have not enabled or configured the MTD8xx compatible driver as dynamic loadable or embedded system module, then you could follow the step 4 to enable the driver and re-compile the kernel. If you could use the console command "#locate fealnx.o" to locate the module driver file or find the driver module file fealnx.o in kernel source /usr/src/linux-2.4.x/drivers/net in your Linux system, then you could load module into system by console command "insmod fealnx.o" and then "ifconfig eth0 up" to bring this adapter to work. You could use console command "linuxconf" to configure this adapter card too. 4. If your Linux kernel is any new version above than 2.4.5 (included) and it is a new installation, you can configure the kernel by following console commands to enable the driver for 100/10M Ethernet PCI Adapter. #/usr/src/menuconfig Enable the option of "Myson MTD-8XX PCI Ethernet support" in "Ethernet (10 or 100 M bit)" of "Network device support" as a loadable module or system default module. #make dep #make clean #make bzImage #cp /usr/src/linux-2.4.X/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot Then, edit /etc/lilo.conf, run "/sbin/lilo", and then reboot your Linux system. After new kernel has been rebooted, it will automatically load the driver for this adapter.Download Driver Pack
After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
