well, know you're really go to know how ignorant I am but I downloaded the 5.2 version and have no idea whether I'm running the PAE version since there was never any question asked during installation. Only 4gb loaded on machine @ this time but had thought about increasing it.

Ok it's not such a silly question! You can find the kernel version by looking athe hardware report in the webconfig or running the following command:-

you're too kind so once I've downloaded the correct version from you, do I need to un-install the old driver? what's the commands I need?
yum ...?

Ok great,


Then to make sure it's running the newer version run the following (or reboot) - where ethN is the interace name using this driver.

Tim,
you are awesome everything worked. thanks for all of your efforts.

Tim, tried sending a private pm from your website but the captcha system is broken

D'oh! i'll investigate, you can always drop me a line at timb80 @ yahoo.com. Glad it's working for you

Hi Tim,

I installed the on board Ethernet card in my office. It shows in the GUI. After the configuration I restarted the server. Server is very slow to boot.

I checked the following things.


1. /etc/firewall (WAN and LAN)

2. /etc/modprobe.conf

3. /etc/sysconfig/network-script/ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth1

4. ifconfig


All the settings are seems to be ok. But ClearOS is very very slow. What is the next step I have to do?


I followed below link to install Ethernet card.

Is this a new installation or have you enabled an existing adaptor or added a new one. A slow responding system can be due to a lack of valid DNS in your WAN configuration.

If it is a new installation you may also want to try the sk98lin driver from Tim's repo instead of the sky2 driver. If you do install it, in /etc/modprobe.conf change sky2 to sk82lin and reboot.

First I want to thank for your quick reply Nick.

I am having the problem with eth1(Atheros Communications Unknown device 1083) not with the eth0(00:50:43:00:45:3e) sky2.

OK i will try with your suggestion.
