Realtek 8029 not recognized

[Francesco Brasini <brasini@dm.unibo.it>]

Hello,

 I'm trying to bring new life to some old powermac 4400/200 here in the
Dept. of Mathematics of the University of Bologna, Italy, installing
Debian on them. Almost a success, but.... I'm still not able to see the
ethernet card.

"cat  /proc/pci" outputs:

  Bus  0, device  14, function  0:
    Ethernet controller: Realtek 8029 (rev 0).
      Medium devsel.  IRQ 24.
      I/O at 0x400 [0x401].

So I have searched the web for the correct driver and found ne2k-pci,
then I have recompiled the kernel (2.2.18pre21) with the following
options:

#
# Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
#
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y
CONFIG_MACE=y
# CONFIG_MACE_AAUI_PORT is not set
# CONFIG_BMAC is not set
# CONFIG_GMAC is not set
# CONFIG_NCR885E is not set
# CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_3COM is not set
# CONFIG_LANCE is not set
# CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_SMC is not set
# CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_RACAL is not set
# CONFIG_NET_ISA is not set
CONFIG_NET_EISA=y
# CONFIG_PCNET32 is not set
# CONFIG_APRICOT is not set
# CONFIG_CS89x0 is not set
# CONFIG_DE4X5 is not set
# CONFIG_DEC_ELCP is not set
# CONFIG_DEC_ELCP_OLD is not set
# CONFIG_DEC_ELCP_NG is not set
# CONFIG_DGRS is not set
# CONFIG_EEXPRESS_PRO100 is not set
CONFIG_NE2K_PCI=y
# CONFIG_TLAN is not set
# CONFIG_VIA_RHINE is not set
# CONFIG_SIS900 is not set
# CONFIG_NET_POCKET is not set

but the card is still not recognized.

Any clue?

Thanks,

Francesco.
