Donald,

When I ran the dmesg | grep eth0 command it returned the command line and
nothing else.  I am completely running out of ideas here.  I do know that
the card worked  before when I was running windows 95/98.  Is it possible
that Im missing a step or something?

Thanks,

David

You probably wanted
 dmesg | grep eth0

The detection message is important.

This looks normal.  It's a LiteOn PNIC-II
