Hello,

month old. Its characteristics are:

I am on a local network (in a university), and I access the Internet through it.
I've tried to install Red Hat Linux9. I've checked everything (as far as I 
know) before starting the installation. But, when choosing the graphical 
installation, it bugged, saying that there was an error with my x server (or 
something like that). The text installation is working, but when I try to 
configure my network settings, it bugs saying that my Ethernet card can't be 
recognized.

Has anyone experieced the same thing, or know where it comes from?

Thank you very much, Marie-Lise.
