I have an Lenovo T60 Thinkpad that I purchased two days ago. I have 
installed Redhat Enterprise WS 4, ver. 2 on this laptop, but  I noticed 
that it did pick up my nic card which is a Intel PRO/1000 PL Networking 
Connection adapter. I have tried googling, site searches, speaking to 
both Intel and Lenovo to see if I could get the proper drivers for this 
internal nic but it seems I am stymied at almost every turn.
Does anyone know where I can get the correct linux drivers\rpm for this 
nic card?, again it is a Intel PRO/1000 PL Networking Connection card 
for an Lenovo\IBM T60 Thinkpad laptop. The intel site was absolutely of 
no help and both intel and Lenovo kept passing the buck to one another. 
Very frustrating.

PS, the BIOS is up to date.
