             Linux Driver Installation
=======================================================

1. Most Linux distributions can detect ALFA AFC2206 automatically,
   run "ifconfig" to check it:
    root~# ifconfig
    eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:C0:CA:89:22:16  
              inet addr:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx  Bcast:xxx.xxx.xxx.255  Mask:255.xxx.xxx.xxx
              UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
              RX packets:7112 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
              TX packets:4506 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
              collisions:74 txqueuelen:100 
              Interrupt:11 Base address:0x7000
    lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
              inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
              UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3924  Metric:1
              RX packets:10 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
              TX packets:10 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
              collisions:0 txqueuelen:0

   if you can see the "eth0", your Linux already detects your AFC2206.

2. If the "eth0" does not exist, you can append this line to
   "/etc/conf.modules":

   alias eth0 8139too

   Linux will load the driver "8139too.o" for
   "eth0"(first ethernet card on system)
   note: the driver name in kernel 2.0,2.2 is "rtl8139",
         but "8139too" in kernel 2.4.

3. Refer to your Linux manuals for TCP/IP configurations.
