Welcome.  After X Window, all other configurations will seem trivial:)

A word to the wise; as new to Debian and Linux, you are likely to
receive a thorough roasting if you continue to use HTML, MS-TNEF, and
multi-part/mixed (except for sig-keys) on the list.

Likely the eepro100 module is what you need.  Since you only install
once, I've forgotten the mod install directions.  They're simple, so
someone will either give you a step by step or direct you to the proper
docs.

It can, but not necessary in this case.

If you're using the Debian kernel binaries, the module is already
available.  You just need to install it.  Help will be forthcoming.
