Hello Abe,

I dont' use mandrake, but you may wish to find out if you can use realtek drivers from your device list.

This guy looks like he got it working under mandrake:

I just completed installation of Mandriva Linux 2006 on a new machine with the following specs:
Motherboard: Red Fox GeForce 6100-M9
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3000+
RAM: 1 GB

How do I get started connecting to our LAN if my network interface device is not on the list found in "Mandriva Linux Control Center" > "Network & Internet" > "Set up a new network interface (LAN, ISDN, ADSL, ...)"? The device is on-board. Here's all the information on it found on the motherboard's manual:

10/100 LAN PHY
- PHY: RTL8201BL/RTL8201CL.
- Supports 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s auto-negotiation.
- Half/Full duplex capability
- Supports ACPI, PCI power management

Is there any other means of setting up my network connection, preferably another GUI configuration tool (my apologies to configuration-by-hand purists)?

Thanks,
Abe Mandac
