IS THERE ANY SOLUTION

you did not send lspci|grep -i ethernet output. Its to make sure model of your card.

try this
lsmod |grep 3c501
If it shows something then run follow two commands to remove and load the module
modprobe -r 3c501
modprobe 3c501
else directly load it
modprobe 3c501

if modprobe 3c501 gives error e.e no such module, then gotta find out whats the driver for Linux for your card

[root@localhost ~]# lspci|grep -i ethernet
05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82573L Gigabit Ethernet Controller


what i do now to these proplem


iam wiating

I think its been answered by @Khawk..follow the steps

#lsmod |grep 3c501
If it shows something then run follow two commands to remove and load the module
#modprobe -r 3c501
and than
#modprobe 3c501

else directly load it
#modprobe 3c501

if modprobe 3c501 gives error e.e no such module, then gotta find out whats the driver for Linux for your card

I got the same problems with my new motherboard. When I do modprobe 3c501, I get the error message
"FATAL: error inserting 3c501 (/lib/.../3c501.ko): No such device".

I have a cdrom with Linux drivers (source code). The folders are:
Attansic/AtL2Linux_v0.2.40.0
AttansicL1/AtL1Linux_v0.1.40.8
Realtek/linux_8139(200)/8139too

Which one(s) should I use and how do I get them installed?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

By the way, I use Fedora Core 4. And lspci | grep -i ethernet shows:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Unknown device 1969:2048 (rev a0)

You have an Attansic L2 network device.
