[PLUG] Debian Network Problem

[Jason Van Cleve]

Okay, here's the output some of you requested.  ifconfig eth0 yields:

And `cat /proc/pci` displays these:

Chorman, I couldn't get that test.c thing to build.  I had booted from
the gentoo CD, remember, rc4.  It didn't have gcc, and when I tried your
command using cpp instead, it started returning an error about not
finding /usr/bin/python, over and over again, until the whole OS
eventually siezed up.  Which perhaps is telling in itself.

Maybe I could build a static-linked one on my workstation, but I would
know how.
