What, trying to get a video card working? Oh boy, that's a terrific advert for Linux isn't it. Roll up, roll up, you too can waste two days of your life trying to do something that takes two minutes in Windoze...and you'll still fail because you need 15 years experience first! >try running modconf at the command prompt and installing the needed NIC module. Unless I have completely misunderstood what all these commands are telling me (which is entirely possible!), then, according to lsmod, it is loaded. It seems to me that the problem lies not with the NIC, but with the obtaining of a DHCP lease (see earlier post re dhclient) Thanks.
