can someone PLEASE point me into the right direction to get my network card to work on linux, so i can have an internet connection?

Also, i went into software managment, and typed in kernel-source, and nothing showed up in either box. I REALLY NEED HELP... :)

Open a console and enter this command: /usr/sbin/hwinfo --netcard. Assuming you have hwinfo installed, it will show you which driver is required, and whether or not that driver is active. If you don't have hwinfo installed, it's probably on installation media. Use Yast to install hwinfo.

Then give this command: modprobe <driver name> (where <driver name> is the name of the driver, without any extension, such as .o or .ko).

If you still don't get internet, boot windows and go to the network card vendor's website to look for the driver and installation instructions.
