I was wondering if anyone is having the problems I am when installing
patches from the Beta patchkit. I was recommended them to resolve
a problem to do with a ne2000 card that displays:

"starartartartartartaratart"

when receiving TCP packets. Unfortunately, patch 26 and 56 won't 
install properly. I looked up the use of these patches and it seems
that they aren't crucial. The problem is that after a kernel rebuild,
which I assume I have done correctly, the problem has not been solved.
Has anyone got anymore info on the problem and which patch actually 
solves it.
