Sorry, the precompiled kernel was made for my laptop which has the
Actiontec combo card. You have to recompile your own kernel, based
on the kernel config file that was enclosed to the tarball. Just
disable the incorrect Ethernet driver and enable yours.
Best use make-kpkg to build the kernel so that you will get a deb!
Cheers,
