Introducing Linux LAN card driver

Is an easy way to introduce the driver if Windows and Linux easily go tricky is. Let me explain how to install the driver for 1000Base-t LAN card ( adapter ) Linux RedHat9.
A 100 Base-TX card driver LAN card though mostly introduced in automatic. However, if you do not also with 1000Base-t without having to introduce yourself often. Here, I want to talk about how to install the drivers for GA-8IPE1000Pro2 is a Gigabyte motherboard with onboard 1000Base-t LAN chip. Any other card is essentially the same.

Deployment preparation

Compiling environment that it is is required to introduce the driver. Linux drivers are supplied with source code. Cannot can direct to introduction, just installed as a terminal for Linux is. Must be specified to build the environment that can be compiled and installed Linux. If the environment is not ready, please reinstall from scratch. Please do not forget to specify the environment can be compiled in the re, installation options.
Also, must be those modules to be installed to take advantage of the Web server or ftp server. Book with paper, so to build ftp server available for ftp server installed and advance the story.

Furthermore, if wrong in following the Linux kernel version to date and please try again. Often to latest kernel versions, connected to the Internet have to use the Red Hat Update Agent, if you have a 100 Base-TX LAN card to recognize automatically, for the time being please kernel to date in that way.

How do it?

Before describing a driver how to get here or how better if as a result.

during startup, “eth0:” that that error is displayed after the show,.
When you receive the error, driver incompatibility might be after this. Also, error is displayed, even when the bad LAN cables are available. Is my experience, no problem in Windows LAN cable also error out in Linux, were not available. Cannot identify the cause of the error, when the LAN cable also let doubting.

You can view Web pages in the browser.
Also Linux browser folder view state the url field at the top of the browser.

The IP address is displayed when you run the ifconfig command on the terminal screen,.

Can access as an ftp server.
Successful, access ftp command from another server in this case.

How to install part 1

So what explains how to install.

Provide a compressed file for driver installation.
Compressed files are on the CD-ROM that comes with the product. However, sometimes, whether to fit any Linux version is unknown, so it won’t go to portal site for the LAN card manufacturers, look for drivers. Here use this driver had the Intel site. Compressed file for Linux is from the file name for example, follows below
( example ) e n/a tar.gz
If you cannot connect to the Internet in Linux, and get on another Windows machine. Copy the compressed files with media such as a floppy disk, bring your Linux machine.
(Note) is the name of the compressed file for a while, varies depending on the card type and environment.
Create a temporary folder.
Then create a folder like the following, to perform in this compilation.
Copy the compressed files obtained in the working folder.
Open the folder that you created, copy in that. Media such as a floppy disk any compressed file, drag and drop copy, no trouble.
copy the URL.
So later specify the url here in terms of Terminal I will copy it. Of course, it is fine by manually typing in the terminal screen.
Start the Terminal.
To move the current directory in the previous working directory.
Cd command moves the figure.
Check the compressed files.
check whether the ls command display name of compressed file.

After this, followed by operation. Next page please.

How to install part 2

Still explains how to install.
1. To extract the compressed file to the following type.
  
  tar zxf e1000-x.x.x.tar.gz
2. To move the current directory to the src.
  Unzip the source code still generates in the src directory of the hierarchy under the move that directory.
  CD e1000-x.x.x/src/
  (Actual name)e1000-x.x.x note at the confirmation that ls command.
3. Type the following, and compilation.
  make install
  
  After compilation, ( example : e1000.o ) binary files created in the directory like:.
  
  (KERNEL VERSION) / /lib/modules > /kernel/drivers/net/e1000/e1000.o
4. Type the following, to load the module.
  e1000 is the case of this example. Change your situation.
  modprobe e1000
  
  insmod e1000
  
  After this reboot. Manipulate the Kudzu appears to change the settings in the hardware, direction. For more information, see this article.
  
  Check the operation of the
  
  The following after reboot, check the operation.
  1. Start the network settings.
  2. Check the status is “running”.
    
    If the boot medium and, when also is listed in the “start in” Web page is not displayed well in the browser, please try the following.
    
    -Press the “start” button on the left
    
    -Remove the driver once in the “delete” button if, run the installation again.
    -Remove eth1 and eth0 is recognized, the “hardware” tab and run the install again.
    -Try introduced modules on deleting a hardware, if the hardware, recognized that might benefit as much as possible in the “new” button.
    
    Next is how to make available to the ftp server.
    
    use the ftp server
    
    Ftp server is not started in its current state, so remember to ftp servers to boot Linux startup.
    1. In terminal type “setup”.
    2. Select the “System services”.
    3. you check the “vsftpd”.
      Check appears when you press the SPACEBAR.
      
      At least the setting is finished. Reboot has become available ftp server.
