Jason,

Reinstalling isn't really necessary.  There's two things that could be 
affecting you.  First, make sure your pcmcia drivers and service are started. 

- chkconfig --list, look for pcmcia to be 'on' in levels 3 and 5 at least
- /sbin/lsmod, look for modules such as pcmcia_cs and some others that have 
pcmcia in the name

Second, does the card come with a driver disk?  Sometimes they provide linux 
drivers on the disk, which you can use to identify the driver you need.  
Don't use this driver (I wouldn't anyway), but just get the name of the 
module.  I think it's tulip, since that what I see the DE-660 using, but I 
could be wrong (your's being a 660+).

You may need to post a message to the linux driver mailing list: 
http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/ to see if someone out there has this 
card working.
