    Hello ,

    I'm a new linux user who just installed redhat 9.0.

    My computers motherboard is the MSI 865PE Neo2 which has the
    integrated Lan 82562EZ.

    During the installation this hardware was not recognized by the OS. Am i
    missing the drivers?
    I went to the intel site which has three linux drivers but none actually
    that they say supports this.
    these drivers are:

    e1000-4.3.15.tar.gz
    e1000-4.4.19.tar.gz
    e1000-5.2.30.1.tar.gz

    Does anyone know if one of these will help the os recognize my ethernet
    connection. If so how do I install it in Linux.

    If none of these drivers are the correct one could someone point me in the
    right direction. I was hoping maybe someone with the same mainboard has
    encountered this problem and would be able to offer advice,

    Thanks, Tom M
