Subject: Missing natsemi PCI ID

Taken from "lspci -vvv".
The computer is an HP Pavilion ze4145 notebook. Most of the devices do not
have corresponding PCI ID's in the kernel, but I am only worried about the
NIC right now.

00:12.0 Ethernet controller: National Semiconductor Corporation DP83815
(MacPhyter) Ethernet Controller
Subsystem: Unknown device 3c08:2400
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-
ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium
>TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11
Region 0: I/O ports at 8c00
Region 1: Memory at e0003000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=320mA
PME(D0+,D1+,D2+,D3hot+,D3cold+)
Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I've had this notebook for 6 months
and cannot use the network card under Linux. I tested it with Windows and
OpenBSD and the network card works fine under both.

Have you tried "# modprobe natsemi" ?
Followed by usual network configuration.

What distribution do you use?

What's wrong with the NIC?

if you load the natsemi driver, what do you get?

Notice that as computers are becoming easier and easier to use,
suddenly there's a big market for "Dummies" books. Cause and effect,
or merely an ironic juxtaposition of unrelated facts?

both modprobe and insmod natsemi say "No such device" trying to load it,
that's the only error there is, and the distribution is Debian 3.0.
