I was actually looking for the output of lspci -n, but I happen to know
the PCI ID for that one is 1011:0002, so it's all good. :)
Anyway, since you're running 2.4.27, your experiences with the drivers
unfortunately don't tell us anything about how things should be structured
for etch, which uses a 2.6.15 kernel in the installer with all the bugfixes
and regressions that such a jump implies. By any chance, would you be
willing to load a 2.6.15 kernel on the system (from etch, requiring a few
other package upgrades), to test whether your networking works with the
current default driver selections?
Cheers,
