To load the module manually, perform the following procedure:
1. Enter modprobe sk98lin.
2. If an AT-2971 adapter is installed in your computer and you have a
/proc file system, execute the command:
# ls /proc/net/sk98lin/
This should produce an output containing a line with the following
format:
eth0 eth1
which indicates that your adapter has been found and initialized.
To stop and unload the driver modules, perform the following
procedure:
1. Execute the command ifconfig YOUR_DEVICE down.
# ifconfif eth0 down
# ifconfif eth1 down
2. Execute the command rmmod sk98lin.
Parameters can be set at the command line after the module has been
loaded with the command modprobe. In some distributions, the
configuration tools are able to pass parameters to the driver module.
If you use the kernel module loader, you can set driver parameters in the
file /etc/modules.conf (or old name: /etc/conf.modules).
