After a boot you could run

dmesg

which dumps the last load of system messages on your screen. Might not
show enough though.

You can also, as root, examine /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog to
see additional information that surrounds loading the driver for your
LANcard. Use 'less' for checking the files, it makes scrolling and
searching easy.  :)
