re: setting up eth1 interface
Still no luck,

a good idea could be is make a modules alias for each card (I think it
goes in /etc/modutils/aliases):
alias eth0 de4x5
alias eth1 3c59x
or whatever you need.
This could also help... (then just do:
modprobe -v eth0
modprobe -v eth1
)
Hope this helps,

-------------------------------------
New things are always on the horizon.
added some aliases to /etc/modutils/aliases, ran update-modules and the
right lines appeared in modules.conf, then depmod -a
###network modules
alias eth0 tulip
alias eth1 tulip
#options tulip io=0x400,0x800
The options line is now commented out since neither card would work with
that line.
modprobe -v eth1 was silent, no errors or messages in /var/log/messages
still when I try to bring up eth1 I get the following message
#ifconfig eth1 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 up
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth1: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
eth1: unknown interface: No such device
I don't know what else to try, except compiling the tulip driver into
the kernel. Would that make a difference?
I tried compiling the tulip.c from Linksys but it wouldn't compile.
Struggling on, any help appreciated.
