It uses the eepro100 driver. I have used them for years at work. Pricey though but okay if someone else is paying. :-) I installed the driver at debian install time and it just worked. At the point in the b-f install where it asks you to configure kernel device drivers you need to specifically scroll down to some/thing/net and select that subpage. In that subpage scroll down to eepro100 and select it. Then exit out of the driver selection page and it will automatically walk you through the network setup. DHCP yes or no, if no then static IPs for DNS, etc. But frankly I don't know how you would install this later such as after a system is up and running. I have eepro100 in my /etc/modules file so I suppose that you would need to put that there and modprobe it as suggested by others. Then probably there is a 'dpkg-reconfigure something' which will walk you through that. I don't know. Can someone suggest the helper utility that walks the user through that? Bob
