Hello, I am currently running a 2.2 kernel with the same card. It is my second card, and I have this in my /etc/network/interfaces file: # The second network card # (network, broadcast and gateway are optional) # automatically added when upgrading auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static pre-up modprobe natsemi address 192.168.110.125 netmask 255.255.255.0 When I do lsmod, I see pci-scan is used by natsemi, so I think the above modprobe loads both modules. Looking at the natsemi.c source, there is a debug variable that you can set when the module is loaded. It says that 1 is normal messages and 7 is verbose. If it still isn't working, perhaps doing that can help you figure out what is going wrong? I hope this helps. Brian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
