DSL looks great, but unfortunately it won't recognize my onboard chipset integrated 10/100 ethernet.

While using netcardconfig, DSL said it couldn't find any supported ethernet card. 狢've tried other live dist's of linux, and they have all worked with my integrated 10/100 ethernet.

Any ideas?

EDIT: here's the mobo I'm currently using - < http://www.msicomputer.com/product....lass=mb >

i believe you have the same problem as mine.
I have Abit NF7-M (nforce2)
I think most nforce2 m/b use the same NIC..
Realtek PNY ...
You can download driver from nvidia.com
nvnet.o
search google for Nforce NIC linux
However, this driver need to compile against kernel which i don't know how to do it with DSL.
Any help would be appeciated..
