I switched my machine to real IP from our 192.168.x.x but then my transfers from our file server stunk. So I found on VersionTracker. Most of the cheap $10-$15 ethernet cards use the rtl8139c chipset. I found both and the. I got a D-Link for $10 with a $10 rebate at a local store. Installed the card and ran the driver package. Worked perfectly first try.
Realtek Drivers For Linux Mint
Apr 21, 2019 Being asked to add support for Realtek's Fast Ethernet PCIe NICs to my RTL8111 driver I got tired of answering the same old question again and again so that I finally decided to write a separate driver for these chips and to make a few of you guys and gals happy. Dec 18, 2004 I've got a Realtek 8139 integrated on my MB and it works perfectly (Debian Sarge, netinstall. I installed it using a Woody net-install, so my NIC works in Woody). These Realtek cards do work in Debian (actually it has nothing to do with the distribution, but with the kernel).
I guess gone are the days of 'Mac Only' hardware. I'm thrilled. An easy way to tell if a card will work is look at the linux drivers, if they are rtl8139, you're set. Hi, I have similar experiences with the realtek driver and a Farallon net-line card in my DA 533 G4.
Due to the shortcomings of the current Realtek 81xx Hackintosh drivers (such as lack of or limited support of 8111E, 32/64-bit, sleep issues), I endeavored to port the Linux RTL81xx driver to Mac OS X.
It seems to work, connecting to the internet works, printing not. The second PCI ethernet slot card shows up in the network preferences nicely. This enables you to make your own settings for this card. I've set up mine up to use appletalk, and it is However, I have a strange problem with printing. I have a Laserjet 4M PS printer connected to the Farallon card. It is recognized with appletalk, but when it prints it only prints postscript error messages.
This happens in any program under X. I've tried to restore the factory settings of the printer, but it didn't work. The Farallon card works fine with a cable modem connected to it under X. So it appears that the drivers work, at least with a cable modem. Regards, Obi.
