Let's see:  does it look like the driver module is being loaded?
Use `dmesg | more` to find out.

If so, are you using a static IP, and have an entry in 
/etc/network/interface, such as
iface eth0 inet static
	address LL.MM.NN.OO
	netmask 255.255.255.0
	network LL.MM.NN.0
	broadcast LL.MM.NN.255
	gateway LL.MM.NN.PP 
?
