Yes, the interrupt setting in your ethernet driver and your card are
different, so the two are not quite talking to each other right.
For the LinkSys16 cards, there is a utility on a DOS diskette. Take
a bootable DOS floppy, boot the PC with that, and rund the utility.
(It is in a directory called utility, and I think it may be called
setup.exe or some such thing.)
Set your interrupt to something sane like IRQ 10.
Then, reboot the PC under Linux. As root, edit /etc/conf.modules and
put in a line like this, or edit the one already there:
options eth0 io=0x300 irq=10
Just make sure the IO and IRQ match what you set under the utility.
Then just reboot Linux and all should be well.
If you do not have the utility disk any longer, LinkSys has it on their
web site.
