kv8 pro and fedora ethernet


I just istalled fedora 64 core 2 on my new comptuer that is running on a Abit kv8 pro motherboard with a built in gigabite ethernet controller......
I am a bsd guy so I am not that familiar with fedora but bsd didnt like my sata drives so here I am, how do I get my internet to work. I tried

setup network,
then put in some info and then tried to activate it and it didnt work so well, just said failed to load on eth 0 , and named some card, I am not sure if this is the right card since I was playing with it earlier and chose that card for one of the settings but then deleted all of my configurations. but its one of the ones I chose earlier

I realise that it is a bit to type so maybe you could just check for the Ethernet controller - do you get anything with:
lspci | grep Eth

It probably isn't in your PATH - try:
/sbin/lspci | grep Eth
