i finally got Linux Redhat 9.0 running on my laptop, it works perfectly fine except for internet connections. Im in a Cisco Networking class, so i know a very decent amount of stuff to configure internet connections, etc. Linux doesnt want to read my ethernet cards, all 3 of them. I have a generic ethernet NIC on the back of my laptop, that doesnt want to be read. i also have a 3Com Megahertz Cardbus and that doesnt want to be read, because Linux doesnt have the right drivers... and my Linksys Wireless WCP11 isnt supported either....i need to find the drivers or something for Linux....i downloaded the WCP11 driver for "Other" operating systems but Linux wont open anything in the folder....any suggestions PLEASEEEEE....this is driving me nuts...

and for anyone who says "how did you get the driver on your laptop without internet?" i downloaded it on my comp and burnt it to a cd....
