PCI BIOS has not enabled the device at ...



Suddenly I am not able to get network access through my ethernet card and this
error ( PCI BIOS has not enabled ... ) in dmesg seems to point to the problem as
it comes just prior to the ethernet card being identified.

Does anybody know what this might mean  ?????

  
I have been playing with bits and pieces so I may have changed something I was not
supposed to, ie. the ethernet card was working before. I am using the new tulip
driver not the one packed with the Debian - running potato with 2.2.12 on an NEC
Versa Note

Thanks,

J.
