Re: PCI card not detected on Intel 845G chipset

[Ronny Bremer]

Yes, windows finds the card. I even check with Netgear to make sure they haven't changed the chipset.

Apparently, their support was wrong. I replaced the Netgear card with a different model and Linux finds it immediately.

I am still a bit confused but there is no way to blame the kernel on this one :-)

Thank you for taking time to look into this.

Does Windows find this card?  And have you made sure you've got the
card propery seated in the slot?  Maybe you've got a bad connection,
or a 3.3v card in 5v slot.  In other words, check the hardware.

Wierd, but try using 'lspci -vvvvv' for even more details on this
unknown device.
