Quad Port Ethernet Card - What one?

12-19-2005, 09:47 AM

Hi, can anyone recommend me a quad port ethernet card that is supported by
Linux... one which I can simply plug in and get detected by the distro would
be best, however that's only a nicety and not a requirement.

TIA

to be done in way of installation?

I have used Sun's hme cards ( called happy-meal ethernet cards ) in the
linux config ... just so happened that there were a few lying around and
not being used.
