    When I was installing Deb 3.0r1 on a new machine, I couldn't find what I
    thought was the right module/driver for the ethernet card, so I just
    skipped it. Later I found the right driver. I can get the card up and
    working. Manually, I can do it this way:

    modprobe natsemi
    ifconfig eth0 inet 192.168.10.2
    route add default gw 192.168.10.20

    However, I don't know how to integrate this with the Debian
    /etc/modules/* and /etc/modules.conf. Can anyone tell me what files to
    create and with what parameters?

    Paul
