Be careful, however, about virtual packages. For example, equery depenxs xorg-x11 will give you nothing - but you can not safely unmerge it, as it's the only package for the virtual package x11, and there actually are a lot of packages depending on x11. I do not know how to correctly deal with

Hi, You must do two things: 1. Ensure the module is loaded automatically at boot. For this you must edit /etc/modules.autoload.d./kernel-2.6 (assuming this is the name of the kernel you are booting) and and your module (sis900) on a line Then run the modules-update script 2. Add net.eth0
