I have a A7N8X Deluxe motherboard with the latest BIOS updates.In the 1st partition I have Win XP Pro and in the second Fedora Core 1.I have Nvidia,3COM as well as Realtek lan card.
I have disabled other two lan cards from BIOS and using the Realtek only.
I have no poblem in XP.But in Fedora it always says-check the cable or cable is missing.But it is very much attached.I have cable internet connection.It shows the lan card driver also which suggests that there is problem in recognising the lan card.In XP, the duplex option to 10MBPS/Full Duplex/.And it runs smoothly.But in Fedora it fails to connect.I did everything correctly except I couldn't find the duplex change option, i.e. from where it has to change.I didn't get ping naturally.The same result I got with 3com but it couldn't recognise the Nvidia card.Any idea?

Partial response - Do a MAN on mii-tool. I use that to set up duplex or half duplex.
