Which driver is suitable for Compaq Evo 620c?

I installed RH9.0 on my notebook Compaq Evo 620c. But the system can't auto-config the network correctly. I have tried some drivers in /lib/module/2.4.20-18/kernel/drivers/net/. But I'm failed.
Who can do me a favor?
Thanks a lot!

What manufacturer made the ethernet card? That will determine the driver needed. My Compaq Presario 2170 uses a National Semiconductor card. The driver is natsemi.
SuSE 8.2 recognized and configured the card automatically.

I can't find my Network adapters in the list HCL - Network adapters, then it means I can't use network in Redhat 9.0 with my notebook.
It's hard to accept.

Who can help me?
