Killer of all evil
Hi people.
I just set up a dual boot system with WINDOWSXPPRO and MANDRIVALINUX2008,and the Linux system was great it has known all my drivers of my PC except the module of the ethernet adapter. I searched a little bit around the net and i saw that a guy with a laptop has the same problem as me ,and he needed just to download to files and it worked for him. I already downloaded those files too,but still haven't tried cause they are the kernel update so i am afraid of ruining my Mandriva installing those so i was wondering is the same the kernel for the Laptop and for the PC. I by myself want to try out cause i think since we have the same ethernet card i thing they will do for me to but i wanted to be sure so i am asking here?
Many thanks in advance.
