I have downloaded and compiled the Driver (as far as I can tell, new to this distro) but I am having problems getting it to load with the kernel and trying to configure it. The log file messages had some text relating to the startup of the driver but I cannot access the internet etc.

Nor can I figure out how to load it on boot.  The instructions talk about using "/etc/modules.conf file" or insmod .  Also as I cannot select the NIC I cannot tell if it is set to use DHCP.

I had same problem with ASSUS mobo and i found that modprobe sk98lin do 
the trick and driver loaded and detected card properly.
nex is ifconfig I assume it is common way to config.
