Hi i am having an Integrated Intel Gigabit ethernet controller, and am connected to LAN, but Fedora doesnt give any option of this controller to be connected to the internet, when i choose Intel gigabit (not integrated) even then i get the same problem. ie when i select the harware interface to intel gigabit @eth0 and then try to activate it, i get an error message saying could not activate the component, error component missing. I am struck how should i proceed. And yeah SATA drive gives a big problem. - thanks in advance ash

There is no real hardware information in your mail. What does "lspci -v" tell about the ethernet controller. I understand that it is fix on your motherboard. Which driver do you try? If you load it by hand, will the syslog then report anything? Does dmesg print anything useful during bootup?
"SATA drive gives a gib problem"? I suspect you want help. This way certainly you can't. At least my crystal ball is lent to a friend.

Hi alex, Thanks for ur mail, i am a novice linux user so excuse me if i had left anythiny important to mention. I have an integrated intel gigabit controller, and a lan connected to the network in my university. I tried to connect fedora to net through the start->system settings->network* and tried to connect to the net by supplying the IP and other info it asks for but except that i couldnt understand what controller it needs i selected intel gigabit controller not the integrate ( since it was not on the list) hoping that it gets connected, but again it could not be activated since the error message said that the hardware listed could not be found. I tried in the net hard to find a patch or some info in it but google couldnt help me. - ash

Again, you do not provide reliable hardware information. On this basis it is hard to help. Run "/sbin/lspci -v" and watch out for information about your network controller. And after bootup run "dmesg | less" to see what your system tells you about the network during the boot.
