Two idle questions: are you sure you have straight-through cables,
have you tried directly connecting the machines to each other with a
cross-over patch cable, have you install tcpdump on both systems &
checked whether any ethernet traffic is actuall occuring on either
card?

OK, that was actually three idle questions. :)
