Jeremy,
I found this link:
http://h20015.www2.hp.com/content/common/manuals/lpi05595/lpi05595.pdf;jsessionid=4JPQUDKI3RA5DQEXGRMEOSQ
that indicates that you basic unit has an Realtek RTL8100L NIC.
- From another link: http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/428/2002/8/0/9377431/
This sounds like you are running an older version of the 8139too
driver... grab the latest from http://sf.net/projects/gkernel/ or kernel
2.4.20-pre1.
Google rules :)
good luck, wishing you well.
