in our tour of duty, we are facing another case where the ethernet device on motherboard didn't recognize by linux kernel. here are the specification :
motherboard :
GIGABYTE G41MT-S2PT
linux operating system :
Scientific Linux 6.0
another enterprise-based linux (centos, oracle linux) will works (i hope).
we have try with fedora 14, but it didn't recognize the device and the driver is not available yet.
fortunate we have found the driver in binary (RPM package). first download the package file from the following links :
i386 driver :
kmod-atl1e-1.0.1.14-1.el6.elrepo.i686.rpm
x86_64 driver :
kmod-atl1e-1.0.1.14-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm
step 1
install the package by typing (as root)
rpm -ivh kmod-atl1e... .rpm
step 2
change directory to /etc/sysconfig/, please check whether there is a file called network, if there isn't create new file with your favourite text editor.
cd /etc/sysconfig/
vim network
the content of network file :
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=(yourhostname.yourdomain)
step 3
execute the command to load module to the kernel :
modprobe atl1e
step 4
execute the command to activate the service :
service NetworkManager restart
that's it folks! now your network interface is ready and you may configure your computer IP's through your NetworkManager or network service.
