I am too old to surrender now ... :) Well, let's see. I will be more specific with my configuration. I have a D-link 670 PCMCIA card with an extended bot (for plugin) on the top PCMCIA port. I have a 3com 589 PCMCIA card with a doggle (for plugin) on the bottom PCMCIA port.
I have placed module 3c589_cs.o and this is required for the 3com card.
The D-Link 670 card requires pcnet_cs.o module. This module is dependant upon crc32.o which is dependant upon 8390.o (the last two modules I have set for the kernel to load) and the pcnet_cs.o and 3c589_cs.o module I have set for the PCMCIA package to load.
lsmod returns:
Module Size Used by Not tainted 3c589_cs 8584 1 ds 6772 2 [3c589_cs] i82365 27184 2 pcmcia_core 41248 0 [3c589_cs ds i82365] softdog 1508 1 ip_nat_irc 2128 0 (unused) ip_nat_ftp 2736 0 (unused) ip_conntrack_irc 2864 1 ip_conntrack_ftp 3472 1 8390 5784 0 (unused) crc32 2648 0 [8390]
The 3com card always tries to init as eth0 (no matter if I have it connected to my network or connected to my cable modem).
If I remove the 3com card and leave the D-link card in and connect the D-link card to the cable modem, then reboot: The D-link lights up with a dhcpcd connection and the led lights up.
I have tried to obtain dhcpd server from the d-link card (as eth1). (ps returns that dhcpd -q is running.) I have tried connecting with windows XP and windows 98 and my ibook but to no avail.
I never was much good at riddles. But I won't give up, I realise by virtue that all is conserved by principle of equilibrium. This requires matter, time, and even perception and human endeavours to share an equal gravity within our physical U. (GI:GO) It is only for the human conception of Energy that we remain skulking feverishly in the darkness.

There are two led on my eth1, none of them light up. My eth0 led lights up green (and posts an dhcpdc IP fine). I can connect the card to windows networking using the existing Win95 on HD and the led lights up.
If no LED lights after booting, you are lost so far. Did you try to ping that card ? I think a PING will certainly fail too. You dont need to go further unless the LEDs stay dark. You said, that the card is running (lighting) using Windows.
To me it seems, you need another driver for that card. You *need* to make the LEDs light up.
Did you try to restart all neccesary services by hand after booting ? svi pcmcia restart svi networking restart svi others ? restart
and don't forget to look at syslog/messages ;-) Do you have another card to try with ?
One of my both cards lights up, when the notebook is turned on,
the other lights up, after pcmcia is started. The one needs software to be activated, the other needs only the computer
turned on.
Dont give up ;-)
