Make sure that you have enabled the non-free and tainted media sources, then set up the card via the Mageia Control Center.
If that doesn't work, you can download the required driver's source code her
here
. Then configure, build/compile and install.

Hi,
I have the same EthernetCard.
You can download the kernel-desktop-3.4.24 from core-updates medias (
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pu ... x86_64.rpm
).
This driver is included in the kernel since the version 3.4.15 (I ask to tmb to add this driver into kernel-desktop)
