installing lan driver
 

I just put mandrake linux on my new computer. I have an asus av8 mobo and it has a built in ethernet card. When i first booted up I didn't have the internet, but I went looking around and eventually got to the system configuration and set my self up a new connection. But now everytime I reboot I have to do this. So when I reboot I don't have the internet so I have to go back into system config and connect again. How can I properally install this driver and maybe the other drivers that came on my mobo. I have a cd that came with it, but I don't think I can do anything with it in linux.

u should have the deamon set in /etc/init.d/ to start the network

do network-admin in command line
or netconfig

it depend on ur distro
