I think we'll need more information than that. Did the driver load
properly? lsmod to confirm. Did it provide you with an ethernet interface?
ifconfig -a
That should show you all available network interfaces. Your first ethernet
interface should be "eth0". Is that there? Cut and paste it in an email.
Then we'll go through the wonderful world of configuring your interface,
routing and DNS.
What auto network config are you talking about? DHCP?
