Linux Doesnt Recognize NIC

GIGABYTE GA-945GZM-S2 LGA 775 Intel 945GZ Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: None

Cons: I bought 4 of these boards, they had the Marvell LAN chipset, and worked great with linux. I bought two more and they had the RealTek RTL8110SC chipset which is not recognized by CentOS 4.4 Linux.

Not as good as I hoped

Pros: Works good with Eeebuntu and the latest kernel 2.6.30.

Cons: I didn't like the Xandros linux, didn't seem to have a lot of features, apt-get update wouldn't run right. The wireless wouldn't work on Ubuntu Netbook Remix or eeebuntu until I install the 2.6.30 kernel, however after putting that kernel on I haven't run into any issue. I was hoping for something that had more features and worked better out of the box.
