Hello.
I have a gentoo-server set up with slimserver. I am currently trying to
bridge it to the network via Squeezebox. But when I insert the
crossover-cable in the server-end, there is no activity in the
network-card, and i don't get the option to bridge in the setup.

Other facts relevant to the case:
-the network card works, I even have two, and can easily connect to
Internet via dhcp with both
-the crossover-cable work, cause when i insert it in my gentoo'd
laptop, there is light/activity in the network-socket, and I get the
bridging option
-when I connect to the server from the laptop via the crossover-cable,
the server-side does have light/activity.
-network chips server: Realtek 8139 and via VT6102.
-network chips laptop: Broadcom BCM4401
Seems to me Squeezebox somehow fails to activate either of my cards.
What can I do? is there something I should turn on/off? I am currently
fiddling around with ethtool to see if the settings are the same in the
laptop-card and the server-cards.
Any help will be much appreciated
