 Hmm. Strangely enough, I finally got it to work by downloading the
via-rhine.o driver from 

http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/

which seems to be larger than the one I got from the 
Bering_1.2_modules_2.4.20.tar.gz file. Just mii and via-rhine and it
worked. Any idea why these are different?
