Hello,
I am running 1/1/2003 level of Knoppix from CD. During startup Knoppix says he finds the NIC. The lights on the back of the NIC do not come on and I have no network access.
The module that supports the NIC is 3C59X. I have tried all the commands in the module and also tried adjusting them, none worked. All attmpts had these messages. Please see the first few lines below of attempts to compile it:
knoppix@ttyp2[src]$ gcc -D__KERNEL__ -Wall -O6 -c 3c59x.c -o 3c59x.o
3c59x.c:106:31: linux/modversions.h: No such file or directory
3c59x.c:133:22: pci-scan.h: No such file or directory
3c59x.c:134:25: kern_compat.h: No such file or directory
The complete listing is available if someone needs it.
There are several pages of errors.
From scanning Google I find that there are files that should be available. To install them it looks like you need to add them and rebuild the kernel.
Data from one entry:
It seems that the drivers to this site all use this new pci-scan.c
source. You can get the *.h files from:
ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/network/.
I guess that you can simply put them into the net directory and remake
the kernel image. I have always compiles the net drivers as modules so
I just used the supplied makefile that comes with all of this.

Are these fixes in the level of Knoppix I am running? It doesn't appear to me that they are. What to do to get my NIC to function?
Thanks for any assistance anyone can give me.
