hello there,

Well I'm also new to endian(6 days) and don't know much about it's internals one thing which I can suggest is as Endian is based on RHEL and comes with kernel 2.6(2.6.22.19 to be precise), so I would try installing some other RHEL based distro to see if they support the card, you could even try a live CD too.

Can you post the output of lspci command? how do you do that? just run the endian installer and go upto the point of network configuration try pressing alt+ctrl+f2 to f5, what it do is it give you the login promt at another console. login here as root, provide endian(I think that is the default password?) as password when prompted, then run the lspci command.
