First off lets see if it is loaded... do a "lsmod" and see if the driver is loaded....

hmm. I looked and i dont see anything with nForce or nvnet or eth so i dont know. but everytime i try to install it again from the rpm, it says package already installed. do i have to compile it and then install it from there? because i thought thats what the rpm was for. thanks for replying

You probably have to do more configuration after you install the rpms. There should be documentation of whatever proceedure you must do at nvidia's website. Have you looked at any documentation so far?

I think i had that problem once,make sure you ae trying to install the correct package. There is a program on there website that you can run that will tell you exactly what package you need to install.

Unfortunaly, i cant seem to locate it at the moment.
