How does the distro matter in this? The same modules work on my RH 7.3 installation. If eepro100 does not work, use the e100 driver. Pointless distro pushing does not make sense.
Not quite pointless. The question is a typical newbie question. There are likely to be many more such, which if the distro happens to be something else will not be answerable by ME.
Modules are kernel issues, not distro issues.
(BTW, I have found apt-get to be a very convoluted way of managing packages. The best way for my administrative style is the BSD ports. apt tends to break when it meets my requirements).
Apt is quite suitable for the less stylish ;-).
You really need to use the FreeBSD ports. :)
