Keith, Not sure if the 9.0 will work with 9.1. Looking at the file name it suggests that is what you are trying to do. I have got nforce2 and the ethernet works fine from the rpm.

Me newbie. Archives don't seem to be available, so pardon me if this is all old territory. Installed ML 9.1. Machine is HP A220n. Carries an Nvidia NForce chipset which slices, dices, and washes your car when you're driving it home to work. In addition to sound and video, it also does ethernet. I know the hardware works because there are several installations of Redmond virusware running on the same box. Obtained drivers in an rpm from Nvidia web site: NVIDIA_nforce-1.0- 0248.mdk90up_2.4.19_16.athlon.rpm and installed. Run drakeconf to set up hardware and network. When asked to look for ethernet devices it sees the Nvidia hardware and attempts to install the drivers but apparently fails. The program simply returns to the screen asking what type of network devices to look for. The modules.conf file contains the line alias eth0 nvnet which the readme.txt says it should have. When I attempt to reinstall the drivers with the rpm a window tells me "Everything is already installed OK". Would appreciate any suggestions here.
