 Does Debian (or any Linux) support a DE200 network card?
 I can't see it on the list.

I have got the DE-250's to work (be carefull, do NOT put them at IO  port
0x280) I think the DE-220 would only have porblems with PnP, but i have
never tried at DE-200.. I *think I saw it listed in the ne.c module
thought..

Don't know about Debian, but assume it's similiar to Slackware.

I have a few DE-100's and these are recognised by the NE drivers. If your card 
is 
not found then you could always put the card sig into the code and re-complie 
the 
kernel. This worked with my DE-001, but the card died.

I don't know about NE drivers, but the DE200 is covered by the depca
driver, see /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/depca.c for details. I found that
probing a DE100 card with cdrom drivers etc. kills it. I don't know if
DE200s are the same. I had to compile a kernel on another (3c509) machine
to be able to use the ones with DE100 cards at all.

The 2.0.27 Debian kernel wiped the eeprom in my de-250 while it was
booting, very scary to boot into linux and then into win95 and find your
net card is no longer working :| The solution in my case was to move it
from port 0x280 to another.
