FC3 won't recognize Intel Pro 100 - Device Not Present

Running FC3 and tried to install 2 - Intel Pro 100 Ethernet cards. The system reports eth1 as Device Not Present. From reading other forums I suspect I'm missing the right driver but might be able to use an alias
in the modprobe.conf. Below is the output of lspci and the contents of the modprobe.conf and the
kernel/driver directory.
Do I have the right driver?
Is an alias in modprobe.conf the right thing to do and, If so, which one do I use?
If the right driver is not present, where do I locate same?

I'm new at this

The alias to add is "eepro100".
This seems to work, i.e. the network can be restarted and does NOT report the device as not present, the intf comes up "OK".
