BINGO!
I have two of them in my box :)
rather easy to install
lets take the easier route here (could have you editing files but we
wont ;) )
if your useing kde (login as root)
and fire up DraxConfig
goto Basic host information
select Adapter 1
Select enable
Select dhcp
set network device to eth0
set kernel module to tulip
click accept
click quit
click activate changes
click quit
open a console and type
rpm -ql dhcpcd
if it says not installed then goto your linux distro
navigate to the RPMS directory and type
rpm -Uhv dhcp-client-3.0b1pl12-2mdk.i586.rpm
type
"ifup eth0"
type
"ifconfig eth0"
you should see something like:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:C5:F4:08:3A
inet addr:24.161.66.121 Bcast:24.161.67.255
Mask:255.255.252.0
UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS RUNNING MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:126274 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:91755 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:1326 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:9 Base address:0xb400
if you see the above then you are more than likely GOLDEN :)

Ron
