Hmmm... it looks like the right version of the driver on their website,
I'll double check.
What version of Linux are you using? Which package did you get - the rpm
or the tarball? What does 'dmesg' say? I'm assuming when you run lspci,
you see an unknown ethernet controller with PCI ID 170d?
Thanks,
