Which option to enable during kernel setup for the NICs?

lspci produces this output for two of my network cards.
One is onboard and another is PCI.

Ethernet Controler Macronix INC [MXIC] MX987x5 (rev 25)
Enternet Controller VIA Technologies VT6102 Rhine II Rev 74

when I do ifconfig I only see loopback device.
Distribution is gentoo linux.
What options do i need to enable during make menuconfig
for these cards to be recognized.

thanks

did compile the driver in the kernel? the try ifconfig -a probably you
didn't configure an ip address.
Otherwise recompile the kernel with the correct driver for both nics.
