RE: Desparate - Weird Network Card problems - 2

[Ajit Warrier <unixajit yahoo com>]

One other point, I dont know how relevant. In dmesg, I
see this entry for eth0 - 

eth0: Digital DS21143 Tulip rev 48 at 0xc48e0000,
EEPROM not present, 00:4c:69:6e:75:79, IRQ 11

Could this be causing a problem. Also the MAC address
is wrong as usual.
