i'm using a test, working, non-crossover cable and am using no special drives. the ethernet option does show up under tcp ip

Fiddling with the software will get you nowhere until you have a lit up Link light for the port the Mac is connected to.
Interesting, there's a 5500 and a 7220 here that wont light up a thing without the correct driver which also means no conflicts. While simply unplugging the cable from another machine and testing the mac with that should rule out a cable problem. Aren't Uplink ports usually marked well enough?
Without knowing if ethernet is an option in any of the control panels I dont see how you can go past software -
the mac acknowledges that i now have an ethernet
- doesn't mean very much to me, once we had the brand and model of the nic and therefore know what driver may or not be needed. I figured you'd nut out the hardware from there. :)
