I am including /var/log/messages output from the 0607 version of the kernel which works, and the 0629 (today) version of the kernel which doesn't. Note the differences in the output from /etc/hotplug/net.agent. I will attempt to look into why this is happening. First, the working version from June 7: Jun 29 12:16:02 lap /etc/hotplug/pci.agent: Setup tulip for PCI slot 02:00.0 Jun 29 12:16:02 lap kernel: Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002) Jun 29 12:16:02 lap kernel: PCI: Enabling device 02:00.0 (0000 -> 0003) Jun 29 12:16:02 lap kernel: eth0: ADMtek Comet rev 17 at 0x1800, 00:E0:98:8E:C0:94, IRQ 9.
