Can anyone direct me to the necessary drivers and install information for the onboard lan in FC3?
Many thanks.
I had a problem many months ago with FC2 and an on board ethernet port. To resolve that problem I had to disable plug and play in the bios. Not sure that is the same problem you are having but it sounds very similar. Everything else seemed to load correctly.
Thanks for your input Scot. Unfortunately, Plug and Play was disabled to start with and after much frustration I turned it on. I will turn it off again and see if it makes a difference, but I'm not holding my breath. The Lan is turned on in the bios as well. I could be wrong (and someone please correct me), but I don't think there is support for the SIS 191/190 LAN in the stock fedora. I thought I would try adding eth0 manually (well, system-config-network-druid), but I didn't see a matching driver.
I'm still going to tinker with the bios more anyway. If it works out - I'll owe you one Scot.
Cheers.

I just checked the system I had that problem on. It had the following ethernet controller:
00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 91)
It was a SIS chip set but not the one you have. Once I disabled the plug and play on that mother board it worked. I think the plug and play option was trying to allocate the interrupt and was fighting the OS which was trying to do the same thing.
Good luck.
