[gentoo-user] network question...

[Joe]

Hello,     I am in the process of installing Gentoo on my laptop (HP ze5185) and I=  have a networking question.  I had a great network connection with the l= iveCD, but now my network card isn't recognized / installed.      When I do an 'ifconfig' all I see is the lo setting, not an eth0.  At f= irst I thought that this was because I had compiled the wrong network dri= vers in the kernel, so I went back and changed it to the National Semicon= ductor one listed on the kernel config screen (the network card is Nation= al Semiconductor Corporation DP83815 (MacPhyter) Ethernet Controller.  th= is is internal - not a pcmcia card).  However after all this I am still u= nable to connect to the internet.  Does anyone know what I might be doing=  wrong?  Thanks for any and all help!  - Joe :)
