Hello,

I have a compaq Presario 1211 with RH7.3,  I also need the tulip driver, for
that I have compiled tulip.c and pci-scan.c.
Next I have delete the tulip.o in
/lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/
after i have installed them with:
install -m 644 pci-scan.o /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/
install -m 644 tulip.o /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/
 next you reboot and that's ok.

| i'm running redhat linux 7.3 kernel 2.4.18-3; i compiled the latest
| tulip.c driver; installed them with
|
| install -m 644 tulip.o /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/
| install -m 644 tulip.o /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/net/
|
| now i fear that i've overwritten my old tulip.o because i forgot to
| move it, and modprobe can't locate it.  how do i install this
| module???  any information would be greatly appreciated
|
|
| [root@localhost netdrivers]# /sbin/depmod -a
| [root@localhost netdrivers]# /sbin/modprobe tulip.o
| modprobe: Can't locate module tulip.o
| [root@localhost netdrivers]# /sbin/insmod tulip
| Using /lib/modules/2.4.18-3/kernel/drivers/net/tulip/tulip.o
| insmod: a module named tulip already exists
