Networking newbie needs help.

I'm getting the following errors when I attempt to:
  insmod tulip.o
from the /lib/modules/2.2.15-22/net directory of my Red Hat 7.0 Linux
installation on an HP Pavilion 6830 with a Linksys NC100 v2 ethernet card
installed.

unresolved symbol pci_drv_unregister
unresolved symbol pci_drv_register

I have installed the RPM package "netdrivers-rh70.i.386.rpm" downloaded from
the scyld.com website using:
  rpm -i --force netdrivers-rh70.i.386.rpm

My ethernet port is active and connected to the internet as verified by a
separate machine running Windows 98. I can ping myself at 127.0.0.1 but no
other IP addresses (like yahoo.com [216.115.108.243]). Linux complains
'network unreachable'.

At bootup the screen displays the line:
  Bringing up interface eth0:  Delaying eth0 initialization [FAILED]

Help! What is keeping me from being connected to the internet?
