On most linux versions I've run two same pitch beeps mean success whereas a single beep of a beep - low beep mean that the driver has failed to be recognised. If cat /var/log/messages or dmesg show that a device driver has been found and that it has been assigned to say /dev/eth0 , all you need to do to get it running is a /sbin/ifconfig eth0 <ip address> where <ip address> may be something like 192.168.1.84 etc... Beware of cardctl and pulling out devices, certain cards will get really upset if you don't do a /sbin/cardctl eject prior to yanking. yours, James.
