AAArgh!!!

So today, the download site is finally working, and after getting the new drivers and even getting the updated kernel (2.4.18-24) for Red Hat 8.0, the network card still doesn’t work!

So I guess I’m going to have to find another network card somewhere that’ll work in Linux for me, unless I’m completely missing something. 🙁

    Spent some time this weekend with the wife, and spent some time away from tech stuff, which was needed to get away from my tech frustrations at least. The other frustrations I was feeling on Friday were professional and they’re not going to change any time soon, that’s for sure, but at least I don’t…

    The good news is, I know, without a doubt, that our weekly tape backups have all been good for over a month now, and I won’t even have to do my normal, routine tests to determine that. The bad news? Well, I think you can probably guess now that you know I spent some quality…
