You might try manually loading the forcedeth driver (modprobe forcedeth). It's the driver for the nforce LAN with a PHY. Your chipset is not an nforce but it is nvidia so it might work, probably not.

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)?
