I want to get my road runner to work with my Linux machine, I installed my Ethernet card and plugged the modem into it. And thats about as far as I got, I was wondering of someone could tell me what I have to do to get it to work. :confused:

I use road runner, and getting it to work in LInux is no sweat. Road runner uses dhcp to configure your ip address.
So, depending on what software you have installed, you could set it up in a number of ways:
pump -i eth0 or
dhcpcd eth0 or
kernel-level auto-configuration or
your distro could set it up for you without you having to do anything.
Tell us more about what linux software you are using (Distro name, version, etc)
