Where did you get the drivers? From the CD or their website? If so, how are they packages? Are the files a tar.gz/tgz/bzip2? If so, they're compressed, and you'll need to uncompress them and then see what files it gives you.
If it's a .bin/.sh/.bash file, have a look at the file with your favourite text editor, see if you can figure out what it does, and if it does it right, then (probably as root), type "sh <name-of-file>.<extension>" in a terminal.
Wherever you got the drivers from *should* have instructions, or at least in the package, you should have a README, or readme.txt

this r the files include in zip format
dmfe.c
dmfe_cal23.o
dmfe_rh61.o
i followed the instuction as mentioned in readmen file
Compiler command:
"gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"
The following steps teach you how to active DM9102 board:
1. Used the upper compiler command to compile dmfe.c
2. insert dmfe module into kernel
"insmod dmfe" ;;Auto Detection Mode
"insmod dmfe mode=0" ;;Force 10M Half Duplex
"insmod dmfe mode=1" ;;Force 100M Half Duplex
"insmod dmfe mode=4" ;;Force 10M Full Duplex
"insmod dmfe mode=5" ;;Force 100M Full Duplex
3. config a dm9102 network interface
"ifconfig eth0 172.22.3.18"
^^^^^^^^^^^ your IP address
4. active the IP routing table
"route add -net 172.22.3.0 eth0"
5. Well done. Your DM9102 adapter actived now.

I'd like to help people but putting up posts saying "I have a problem with XYZ... Help!" isn't very useful. I'm sorry if this sounds rude, but you need to give more information before you can expect any help...
