(I suppose it's a big netiquette no-no to re-order the message.)  :^)

Try running either 'cat /proc/pci' or 'lspci' (probably the first one), and 
then, once you know which network devices Linux thinks you have installed, 
running 'modprobe <some-network-module-name>' for each card you have 
installed.  Or, alternatively, re-compile your kernel saying 'y' rather than 
'm' to the various network drivers (this is what I did).
