I had the same problem, with exact the same card. It seems the smc-ultra driver doesn't detect it anymore since the 2.2.xx kernel series. The reason RedHat 6 found it is its old 2.0 kernel, but as I wanted Debian and a more recent kernel, I swapped all my smc8216's for any other nic with different people that use windows anyway... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
