As you indicate the ethernet controller on board is not recognized out of the box for FC3. You will need to install the updated driver from http://www.syskonnect.de/syskonnect/support/driver/zip/linux get the file install-8_14.tar.bz2. (That is the latest one. I used the install-8_13.tar.bz2 here) In a work directory, copy this file to that directory and execute the following commands: bunzip2 install-8_14.tar.bz2 tar xvf install-8_14.tar This will create a directory with several files. You will need to create a soft link to the header files of the kernel you are using. ln -s /lib/modules/"version"/build /usr/src/linux Replace "version" with the version of your kernel found in the /lib/modules directory. Then go back to the directory you unpacked and run the install script. You should then be able to do a modprobe as it describes or reboot and the system will find your ethernet port and ask you to configure it. -- Scot L.
