Linux Instllation

Hi,

I have an aspire 3003NWLMI laptop, I missed my resource CD.
I tried installing Redhat linux and i had issues with Display,Sound and ethernet.

Display was bit awkard, i mean the fonts were big and i wasnt able to fix it.
Sound it showed everything fine but i heard nothing. Ethernet, it always
throwed a error saying connect the cable and the wireless didnt work.

Can anybody help me identfying the mistakes i am doing.?

Thanks
Saint

Have you installed the drivers for your Display,Sound and ethernet cards?

My opinion is to switch to another linux distro: http://forums.techarena.in/guides-tutorials/1014376.htm
