gentoo-2.4 kernel dlink ethernet network card device

jakamaka

euhm, i tried to install gentoo on another pc of a friend of mine (succesfully installed on my nforce

)

but uhm strange the fact that when i loaded the default gentoo 2.4 kernel the pci network card (dlink) isn't recognised while he has at the moment red hat linux with also a 2.4 kernel and his ethernet device gets recognised

so both 2.4 kernels while in gentoo it doesn't get recognised
anyone knows what kernel module i have to load so the dlink ethernet device gets recognised ?

forget about the d-link
it's a realtec RTL8029(AS) pci ethernet adapter

and it still doesn't work ...
