Hi,

I am Hoay Fern, I am sorry disturbing you again but I have some question wish to ask you.

I have installed the LINUX according what you teach us in class and after I boot up and log in the LINUX, the message:

I already installed the LINUX but the message:

eth0:transmit timed out,status 0073,resetting comes out.

Can you please telll me what is the problems with this error message? I have reinstall for twice and the error still comes out.

When I try to test the network connection using the command ping 203.126.241.50, the messages eth0:transmit timed out,status 0073,resetting
.
comes out and repeating.

Example
eth0:transmit timed out,status 0073,resetting comes out.
eth0:transmit timed out,status 0073,resetting comes out.
eth0:transmit timed out,status 0073,resetting comes out.
We use the Compaq Prosiginia 500

Please assist because we can't do anything with such problem

Hoay: It sounds like the kernal isn't recognizing what type of network card you have. Double-check any software that came with that NIC for any readme files, and I'd also check the NIC maker's web page for Linux / Unix-specific installation files and instructions. You can also double-check in linuxconf as to what's going on, and do a search at redhat.com

HTH!

Hi, I think that u r a new user of linux. For u it will be easier to work using X windows. first check the card configuration with the driver floppy of the lan card. Using this u can check the card configuration ie the irq and the speed . Note it down. then from Xwindows go to the network tab and give the irq no. also give a class c ip address (e.g. 192.168.10 etc)
i think this will help u out
bye
