<br>I have a used Dell laptop that must have been modified after it was<br>shipped because I cannot find the proper windows driver for it. I booted<br>it with Knoppix, which finds and brings up the nic. Where can I look in
<br>Knoppix to see what driver it used, so I can get a clue what windows<br>driver to look for?</blockquote><div><br><br>lspci and lsmod should give you the hardware listing (assuming built in NIC) and a listing of drivers.
<br><br>on my dell lspci gives this for the NIC:<br>0000:08:04.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 08)<br><br>which uses the "e100" drvier which lsmod reports.<br><br><br>
