[SOLVED]New Installation on Eeepc 901, problem with atl1e module

Hi,
I try to reinstall archlinux with the last iso but I have a problem for configuring wired LAN

ip addr

returns

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
2: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:22:15:80:51:47 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: wlan0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:15:af:ed:ba:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

src: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network

lspci -v

returns

04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 Gigabit or Fast Ethernet (rev b0)
        ...
    Kernel driver in use: ATL1E
    Kernel modules: atl1e

dmesg |grep atl1e

returns nothing

So I search for atl1e module

Networking: Ethernet
Ethernet (wired) network access should work right out of the box with precompiled kernels, or with atl1e module you built from AUR.

src: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Asus_Eee_PC_901
Why it doesn't work right out of the box with release 2011.08.19?

so I found it
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Asus_Eee_PC#atl1e
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18663
but the makepkg command fails.

So do you an idea to resolve this problem?
Thanks for your help!!!

It does work out of the box on mine. What does lsmod show:

lsmod | grep atl

#edit: I reinstalled last weekend on this machine and the netinstall iso worked perfectly...
