First things first. I'm new to linux, and I'm new to this PCMCIA devices business, so please go easy on me.
Alright, right now, I have a laptop with RedHat 7.3 installed on it. I chose all the network/internet related and laptop support during installation. What I wanted to do was have this laptop in a LAN with my PC (see computer specs at bottom). Before I go configuring all em samba and other fun things, I have to install my ethernet card such that linux recognise it. It does know that theres something plugged in, and it knows what it is (I see this under the information section in the control center in KDE), but I dont know what to do to get it to use it for networking.
I'm not sure what would be helpful to tell you guys, but the said PCMCIA thing is a D-Link DMF-560TXD (its both a 56k modem and eithernet card), the laptop is a rather old Toshiba Satellite, and again, its Red Hat 7.3.
