I have recompiled the Kernel a number of times. I hvae rechecked the IRQ and I/O address several times. When booting, the kernel recognizes the card is there (eg0), and I can even ifconfig the interface. But it doesn't seem to work. When I attach it to a network, and try to ping another machine, or ping it from another machine, it fails. If I replace the card with a NE2000 compliant card (ed0), it works fine (keep in mind, I have compiled the kernel with both options enabled). Any ideas? If you repond to this post, please cc: a copy to 'gregkopp@en.com' as I don't get ts often as I'd like.
