| Hi All,
I have a PC with two ethernet adaptors. The second one was added today,
after which the first one stopped working.
The second adapter (the working one) is a DLINK DGE-530T. Below follow
all relevant info on the one tha stopped working a Realtec 8139 based card
from micronet.
Debian Etch - 2.6.16-2-686

During the American Revolution, a Britisher tried to raid a farm. He
stumbled across a rock on the ground and fell, whereupon an agressive Rhode
Island Red hopped on top. Seeing this, the farmer commented, "Chicken catch
a Tory!"

Thanks for the reply, but in the end I solved it via the hardware route. I
took out the Dlink and added a second RTL8139 card, and all was well.
While messing around with switching cards I tried two Dlinks and that gave
the same - brocken - behaviour, only the firts detected NIC would come up,
and even thouch the second could be seen as connected, ifconfig would have
nothing to do with it. Can't be sure if the dlink cards had the problem,
or if there is something wrong with the sk98lyn driver/module in the
kernel.
