In my home pc (a P-III 933 MHz) is installed since 1

with Windows XP and Fedora Core 2.
Now I need (for some simple network experiment) to
install a second nic, a 3C905B Cyclone.
With Windows XP no problem: this OS configure these
two nic without any error.
But with FC2 (kernel 2.6.5) I can't use the second nic
(eth1).

I've removed these nic and I've installed (thanks to
my friend) two Intel nic: they works correctly without
any problem. Kernel detect and use eth0 and eth1
without any problem.
So, what's wrong with my two 3C905B/C ?
Someone can help me ?
There may be nothing wrong with your NIC.
Try adding "alias eth1 3c59x" to your /etc/modprobe.conf file, and try it
again.
