Hi Clara,

Have you tried to use via-velocity driver existing already into astlinux?
#cat /etc/astlinux-release
0.4.8
# find / -name via-velocity\*
/lib/modules/2.6.16.12/kernel/drivers/net/via-velocity.ko

In order to verify that it will work with your hardware you should try
# modprobe via-velocity

By default Astlinux load the network drivers located in /etc/rc.modules and 
if you add there a new line with "via-velocity" it should ran OK (ofcourse 
you should pay attention to made this configuration permanent, in order to 
survive to reboots events).

I hope I do not gave wrong hints :)

Ioan.
