Any ideas? I'm totally lost when it comes to drivers and modules in
linux so no idea what to do from here.
OK, the card's on the network, as it's receiving stuff. You're ser up for
a class A network, which shouldn't make any difference, but might. I'd
modify the ifconfig line to
ifconfig eth0 10.1.1.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.1.1.255 up
I'd also try to ping www.google.com - my standard test as it proves both
dns and connectivity at the same time.
However, the lack of outgoing traffic is what worries me more than
anything, suggesting the default route is set somewhere else - what does
route -n return?

Is the above ifconfig line valid if I know that the network definitely
is 10.0.0.0/8? I guess I could change the config on the router but I
know that my notebook (if here) works OK on it running suse 9.3.
knoppix 3.9 reports "no supported network cards found" to ifconfig.
The card is an onboard an Albatron C51MCP51 motherboard, AMD64.
Now, all the other requested commands combined in one reply:
