What has worked for me in the past is to use the 3c5x9cfg program to set the
cards up manually. Meaning turning off PnP and setting the I/O and irq
manually, and obviously different for each card. I have 2 of these cards
running in an old Eigerstein box that only gets rebooted when there is a
I have a very similar setup. I have a Cyrix 6x86 P-150, 32 MB and 2 rtl8139
(Allied Telesyn AT-2500) NIC's. Mine is working OK now. I did have a
problem initially that is similar to yours. The link on eth1 would light up
and drop dead just like yours. It turned out that the cable I was usi
Looks like this did it. My inittab had both tty1 & 2
uncommented under the getty invocation section. I
commented them out around 10 hours ago, and so far my
wtmp file is a respectable size. I'll keep my eye on
it for the next few days. Thanks again.

I have seen this when using the rtl8139 module. There is an updated one
here http://users.owt.com/msensney/lrp/ that I think fixes that. It should

I have this setup working. Going from memory, you will need the vpn kernel
from Charles' site like the former post mentioned. After copying that
