Hey Chris - I have a SIS900 onboard NIC and its working great - 7.3 and
8.0 seemed to find it and operate it AOK. Have you tried the NIC in
windows or some other OS? The NIC may be faulty and it may not be a
config issue... could mean you need a new MOBO - or use a secondary
card. Just as a thought is the NIC enabled in the bios? Mine was not
initially and I had to change that to make it work.
Sorry I can't be of more help - good luck! :)

Mine is working fine also. in my /etc/modules.conf I have the entry:

alias eth0 sis900

What do you see if you do an lspci? I show:

00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 10/100 Ethernet (rev 90)

Have you looked at you BIOS settings, just to make sure it's not DISABLED?

I'm using an ECS K7S5A mobo.
