RealTek Lan?

[JJman]

Hi,

I have an Asus A7N266 M/B which has an on board RealTek, 8100 series (8120) 10/100 Lan. I have installed Mandrake Linux 9.0 however, the op system can not find the LAN card. It seems, through lack of drivers. Does anyone know a source for linux drivers?

Thanks in advance.

I believe it is the same as the 8139. Check on Realtek's website to verify.

Is it enabled in the motherboard BIOS?
Look at the boot messages with dmesg and see if there is are any errors being detected?

Try loading the module.
modprobe rtl8139 (I think this is the one)

If it is the same as the 8139....the module is called '8139too'
