[Sheflug] Realtek RTL8019

["Antony Hawkins" <nospam1045405695-13036 [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, got Mandrake installed at the first go (although the mouse, of 
all things, caused a few headaches initially!).

Only trouble (currently!) is I can't sort the network card.

It's a "Realtek RTL8019 PnP LAN adapter" and in Mandrake's list 
of assorted drivers to try, this one isn't listed or refered to. The 
closest (of the two Realtek cards listed) by number is an 8013, but 
that claims to be a parallel port network adaptor, which mine, er, 
isn't.

Mandrake's own discussion forum doesn't seem to want to let me 
register (helpfully!).

Anyone have any suggestions as to which driver I ought to try?

For me, no network access = no point having the machine!

Thanks
