I had a similar problem with tcpdump. After I saw it referenced in a message here I decided to see what kind of info it would print out. The info on my card (3C509) looked correct, but after running tcpdump, I couldn't connect to any other machines. The light on my hub indicated the card wasn't alive. Rebooting in win95 :^( and then back into debian fixed the problem.
