You need to find out what network card you have. Please post the output of:
Code:

lspci -v
from a terminal.

Also can you post the boot log messages using the following:

Code:

dmesg > bootlog.txt
This should give some insight as to what happened when the kernel tried to load the network driver.

Your board has been tested with you specific distrobution. LAN works fine, try

ifconfig -a

ifconfig eth0 up
