Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-686
Version: 2.6.26-15
Severity: normal

I have two laptops.  One is an IBM ThinkPad 390E running Debian Etch
(kernel linux-image-2.6.18-6-686).  The other is an IBM ThinkPad 600
running Debian Lenny (kernel linux-image-2.6.26-2-686).
I have a 16-bit PC Card 10/100 Ethernet adapter that works in the Etch
machine but does not work in the Lenny machine.  The card has
"COMPAQ 10/100 PC CARD" and "292811-008" on the front and various
things on the back such as "COMPAQ",
"With Integrated 100Mbps Transceiver", "292811-009", "Series NNB108",
"N260", "CE", "PC Card", and some other stuff.
I am using the patch cable (or dongle, or whatever you want to call it) that
came with the card.

Linux recognizes the card as fully supported and loads kernel module
xirc2ps_cs to drive it.  Under Etch, the card works fine.  Under Lenny,
the failure occurrs with a timeout of DHCP configuration.  I can use other
16-bit and 32-bit Ethernet cards successfully in the Lenny machine, but not
the Compaq card.  "lspcmcia -v" lists the card as a
"Compaq Netelligent 10/100" card, though the word "Netelligent" is not
physically printed on the card anywhere.
