It's _really_, _really_ hard to say. You have the disk and all the
configuration there and all I have seen is a couple of interpretations
made by you. It would not be any different if I was to ask you what
was wrong with my car because I hear a noise under the hood......
I am truly stabbing in the dark w/o better diagnogstics as requested
by the SR-FAQ linked at the bottom of _every_ post to this list.
It's likely the reason no one else has replied (they have _no_ 
actual information from the box to work with).

That being said (as clearly as I can in a nice way).....
Assuming you are using modules from the correct kernel tarball,
I would say that you are likely _not_ using a 8139 chipset,
which can be verified by looking at the NIC itself (the chip
will have a marking like 'rtl8139' on it. This idea is based
from the results that I get insmod'ing the same modules on 
my machine w/o a 8139 card and the fact that several people
have reported the same problem with the ne2k-pci card using
the 8139too module (which they also claimed worked with another
full distribution). Personally I would try the pci-scan.o, 8390.o,
and ne2k-pci.o modules (assuming Becker modules).... it sure
won't hurt to try. Though this same thing has been reported before,
there is absolutely no way the 8139too module should _ever_ work
with a 'ne' chipset....these are entirely different and non-compatible
chipsets. Either way, the chip should be marked with the proper
identification if you take a look at it.

Otherwise, we'll need diagnostic information to be of any help!
