Coincidentally enough, I installed Corel on a friend's Latitude this
weekend. What you need to do is edit /etc/modules and add a 3c59x line,
then add 'alias eth0 3c59x' to the end of your /etc/conf.modules file.
I don't have the laptop in front of me so these may not be precisely
right, but it should point you in the right direction.

If you figure out how to get sound working, please post to the list, I
didn't get Darin's laptop sound working either, mostly due to lack of
time.
