network and module problems

Hello all,

I installed the full lsm package onto a RH7.2 machine and I'm seeing
problems when I try to insmod a module or to get any type of networking
loaded.  

Network first.  When the machine boots no network interfaces are loaded,
not even the loopback.  If I try to run `ifup lo` or something similar
to raise the interface I get the error:

Cannot send dump request: Connection refused

I know this isn't just a problem with the network driver since the
loopback doesn't raise either, but I have tried loading my nic as a
module and by building it straight into the kernel.  Which brings me to
the module problem.  Dmesg shows that it finds the nic but I never see
the module as being loaded when I run lsmod and when I try to insmod it
I get an error saying that it can't locate the card on the console and
avc errors in the system log.

I'm also running this on ext3 if that might have something to do with it
since I know ext3 isn't properly supported yet.  Anyhow, any ideas are
welcome and I can reload this machine if the need arises.  Thanks.

Timothy,
