Well, I know the NIC is good, as I was using the laptop with W2k right before I blew it out and installed FC3. Uhm, launched Terminal and tried running lspci and it said Command not find...where do I put the lspci command to get it to run (warned ya I'm a newbie) :) Hmm..any good "Fedora/RedHat Newbie" documents out there?
