5.6.2 ATI Rage XL Display Driver Installation
The RedHat 7.x system can automatically recognize ATI Rage XL graphic
controller (ATI MACH64) during installation. You don’t need to load or
modify the video driver for the onboard VGA device.
4. Compile the driver module:
make install
The binary will be installed as:
For Linux 2.2.x systems:
/lib/modules/[KERNEL_VERSION]/net/e1000.o
For Linux 2.4.x systems:
/lib/modules [KERNEL_VERSION]/kernel/
drivers/net e1000.o
The install locations listed above are the default locations. They may
not be correct for certain Linux distributions. For more information, go
to ldistrib.htm.
5. Install the module:
insmod e1000 <parameter>=<value>
6. Assign an IP address to the interface by entering the following,
where x is the interface number:
ifconfig ethx <IP_address>
7. Verify that the interface works. Enter the following, where
<IP_address> is the IP address for another machine on the
same subnet as the interface that is being tested:
ping <IP_address>
