I did "insmod eepro100", which added it to /etc/conf.modules, but I still
can't bring up the interface.  When I try "ifup eth0" I get a "no such
device" error message.  I get the same error message when I try 
"route add -net 192.168.2.13 dev eth0".

The fact is, Linux doesn't recognize that there is a NIC card plugged into
that ISA slot, and I don't know how to tell it that it's there.  Is there
some way that I could check to see if there's an IRQ conflict?

Also, I'm getting a couple of odd messages from dmesg:

ide2: ports already in use, skipping probe
ds: no socket drivers loaded!

I don't know for sure what these mean, but I'm sure it's not good.
