I'm attaching the output of "cat /proc/pci" to this message, and it
contains an ethernet section similar to yours. The ne2k driver did not
work (it said there was no ne2k when I did a modprobe). I have tried
compiling 8139too statically into the kernel, with no success. I'll try
rtl8139 and the LiveCD sources on the weekend. Thanks again, Stroller.
