I just installed Slackware 11 with the default install (with the test26
kernel), but I can't find the ethernet card. A "ifconfig" only gives
the l0 interface, not the eth0 and eth1 (wireless) that I'd usually see
with the other distributions.

My laptop is an HP Omnibook 6100.

Running "lspci" tells me that it's a "Intell Corporation 82801CAM
(ICH3) PRO/100 VM (KM Ethernet Controller (rev 41)"

Any ideas how I get this to work? Also, when I run "startx" to start
KDE, my touchpad mouse doesn't work.

Did you install the kernel modules for the 2.6 kernel?

No, that ended up not being it.

But I installed it again and let the boot cd autodetect everything.
Then it all worked (along with my wireless card)
