/var/log/messages, etc. Have you looked at the Multiple Ethernet HOWTO? This will be a great place to start if you haven't. Other than the usual IRQ & I/O conflict suggestions and running any DOS-based NIC diagnostic software, I can't offer a lot of help with multiple NIC's because I've never had occasion to do it under Linux. Maybe someone else can offer more help.
