Oh cr#p, I'm an idiot. It said no network card detected, sorry about that, automatism at work. I'll take a look and post what i come up with. :)

It might be a good idea if you can determine if it is a PCI card or ISA card, meaning, what type of 'slot' it is plugged into. My experience tells me that makes a difference with various flavors of Linux and DSL specifically.

Since I am not the guru,

I just did a quick search on forums. I used these parameters:

ethernet AND isa

It returned this, among others:

Maybe that'll get you going in the right direction.

Try this.

Open up a terminal window and type:

sudo su
modprobe eepro
netcardconfig (Configure your network setttings, usually DHCP=YES)
exit
exit
