I had this issue when I first installed. Is it actually loading the module
or crapping out? I have had it recognize the card but not load the module.
My first guess would be that you aren't passing proper IRQ info to module.
Ok, my second guess, my first was DNS :) I'm sure there is a way to check
if a module is loaded, but I don't know it... If you know the IRQ the card
is supposed to be using, go into HardDrake (? I'm not sure what the gui
setup util is called) & check to make sure it is configured for the proper
IRQ.
