i get FATAL: Error inserting 8139too (/lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.ko):

You used an invalid parameter (or invalid systax)
I use the 8139 nic in many machines and the only related line in my modprobe.conf is "alias eth0 8139too"
When I do it manually I do "modprobe eth0" or "modprobe 8139too". I NEVER have to use any options with my systems for that NIC, because it gets the address and irq automatically.

No, you gave the command the IO parameter, which is not valid
for that
specific module.
what should i do? i am completely lost plus i have a verry
limited
experience with linux so... please help me
modprobe 8139too
See "modinfo 8139too" for valid paramters for that
module.

grep "8139too" /etc/modprobe.conf
If that command prints out a line with parameters set, then open the modprobe.conf file with an editor of your choice and put a # in front of the options line. Then again run "modprobe 8139too".
