If you manually set the gateway, you prolly set a static ip address. I
think ICS likes DHCP... set your linux box to DHCP and you should get
ip/gw/dns no problem.
Or just look on the windows box, get the DNS servers, and put them in
/etc/resolv.conf on the linux box.
Try to ping something with ip instead of domain name to verify it's a DNS
problem. ie if you can ping 216.109.125.64 but can't ping www.yahoo.com,
then it's dns.
