Getting Network Card to Work (RHL 9)
I'm having difficulty getting my network card to work with RHL 9; it would not work with Gentoo 2005.1 or Knoppix either. The card is a D-Link DFE-530TX, and is the first time it is being used in any system. The motherboard is a Dell Dimension 4100 (i815 chipset, PIII).

eth0 is Inactive under Network Device Control. I am behind a Linksys Wireless-B router, with DHCP. Any help is appreciated.
