Anyone ever have trouble getting networking to work with slackware? My old ISA card really doesn't seem to want to be detected, though its detected fine under windows. I really have no place to turn but detnet, because the #slackware dudes are just ignoring me.

if you mean slackware on efnet, they never talk. I think they're all just bots.

anyways... try recompiling the kernel with your card's driver either builtin or as a module. if you go module, you gotta put "alias eth0 <driver>" in /etc/modules.conf. If your driver isn't supported (I doubt that'd be true), and you gotta get a new one, go for somethinc PCI.

Okay, got that working fine.. then I installed q3, and it showed me that I was using software to render x-windows. So being the man that I am, I thought some nvidia drivers were in order. Installed them and now x-windows won't start, and while I tried to do the kernel module, it screwed up giving me weird symbol errors. anyone else gone through this kind of hell? 2.2.19 kernel geforce 2mx.
