Is that a Surecom EP-427X? If so, do you have time to help me get Linux to
support it? I've got an EP-427X myself, but I'm not sure if its my (old)
laptop that's the problem, or the driver. (The driver disk that comes with
the card includes source that is a small change to a really old version of
pcmcia-cs's ne2k driver, for use with a 2.0 kernel. I think I've figured
out what Surecom added, but it doesn't seem to work on my laptop :(

Edit /etc/X11/XF86Config and change the order of the Modes line, in the
Screen section that applies to your video card.
