Hi,
I have a dual boot of windows XP and Mandrake 9.0. Just got
cable modem installed today on XP. Am having problems configuring my network adapter (intel pro 100 VE) on Linux. Here is some relevant output (hopefully):

Holy crap that's the most modules I've ever seen loaded at one time ever.... I think I've had about 5 loaded at max one time....

Anyways, its ifconfig, not ipconfig to see what network adapters are enabled/configured...

This card from what I've read, looked up seems to use the e100 module which you don't have loaded. Either you might have to recompile your kernel to add support or download and install the driver/module.

This page gives more information regarding your NIC/chipset, etc: http://www.intel.com/support/network...linux/e100.htm
