Wha!?  After all that hard work!? :)  Heheh

Nah, I've got it working... I'm proud that I figured it out.
While I wish it hadn't taken as long[*], I'm glad for the learning experience.
I'm becoming less baffled-by and scared-of PC hardware as I do stuff like
this.

Thanks for the offer, though. ;)

[*] Mostly took so long because every time I had to Google for info, I had
to run upstairs to my computer.  My dad's PC is currently stealing the
ethernet line that usually goes to my wireless access point. ;)

I can give you a PCI nic if you would like It sounds like it would 
make things a lot easier for you.  I just stuck that old nic in there 
because I had it lying around.

Hrm, more Googling and it seemed to have to do with legacy USB kbd setting
in BIOS.
Seems to work, though I need to make sure my NIC's IRQ is set to 5 now.
