I have an ASUS EeePC 701 (with 2GB of RAM and an 8 GB card), on which I've installed CentOS on the hard-drive-plus-card. But it can't even use my eth0.
Some one on a local LUG, where I had mentioned that other OSs did fine with all the same exact hardware, suggested that CentOS, being designed for stability rather than the bleeding edge, likely lacks drivers; so I need to get some.
Anybody know what drivers (for wireless as well as ethernet cable) I need, and how/where to get ones to fit CentOS??
I have the EXACT same hardware, but am running FC10 on mine. Works just great. And I have both suspend and hibernate working. Ethernet and WiFi work with NetworkManager with no problems, so far.
As nice it is to stay with Centos across the board, I am moving more into using FC for notebooks. However, I am still reluctant to make the move on a notebook that is my 'workhorse'; I need more stablity for something I count on for my job. FC is for tools.
