Well, I went out and bought Red Hat's book entitled the "Official Fedora Companion: Your Guide to the Fedora Project" and I have Fedora now installed in a dual boot configuration along with WinXP. The book helps tremendously, but there are a couple of things I need help with:
My NF7-S v2 has an onboard ethernet controller, the Realtek RTL8201BL. Also, I have a Geforce4 Ti4400.
I need instructions in LAMENS TERMS of what exactly I need to do to install these.
Here is the ENTIRE extent of my knowledge thus far (I have an infinite amount of Linux ignorance as this is my very very very first experience with it...it's been installed for about 20 minutes lol):
1. I can get to the Network Configuration/Add New Device Type/Select Ethernet Adapter screen, but there is no Realtek selection for RTL8201BL. I now am utterly lost and have no idea what to do besides to go to Nvidia's website.
2. I reach Nvidia's website and find the Nforce2 linux drivers here . Now, I don't have any of the distros listed. I'm using Fedora. I see the "Alternative Install" section listed at the bottom of the page, but there is stuff about tar files and whatnot....now I feel ignorant again......
............but I'm eager to learn.
Any help?
