Hi Grant,

This just gets more and more weird.  I d/led the file you found (thanks 
for that! :)) and then used the kernel-source-path switch to install the 
NFORCE drivers.... then it complained it couldn't find the header file 
kernel.h *sigh*

Even more bizarrely it now *works* without doing anything else!  2/3 
times I've booted now and got a working network.  I've actually managed 
to get the correct kernel source in the Xandros Networks panel (from 
what I've read from Debian users I guess this is a GUI for the apt-get 
function as it goes to xandros.com to get updates - can alos be directed 
to a CD).

So now I'll see if it wants to behave when I install the NFORCE drivers 
and NVIDIA GFX.

*fingers crossed* :)

Thanks for all the help you and the guys have given me :)

Kind regards,

Julian
