I probably do, but since I've been using Mandrake up 'til now I'm not sure what tools are available to configure the card. (I looked for 'linuxconf' first thing...!) > address?

I don't see any dhcp line in /etc/network/interfaces, so that may be something I need to do. Also, if this is relevant, I couldn't seem to use the cable modem when I did the Woody install -- although it did say 'you need a dhcp server to configure the network' and I just have a Linux box and a cable modem. Does that mean I had a problem from the start? I'm using the eepro100 module. I selected it during install.
