The main problem I have experienced with PCI NE2000's is that the linux ne
code only probes ISA addresses (around 0x300). PCI cards are 0x6000 and up
on the PCI motherboards I've worked with. Specify the irq and address in
lilo, or conf.modules or rc.modules, and the card gets recognized and works
fine.
