Linux won't use SMC 8416 ether card



I'm trying to use my SMC 8416 ethernet card under linux.  When I use Modconf
to install it, I get the following message.
 
Loading Device 'eth0'
Smc-Ultra.c: No SMC ultra card found(i/o=0x280)
/Lib/modules/2.0.29/net/smc-ultra.o:
init_module: Device or resource busy
Installation failed.
 
Things I've tried:
1) verrified card settings of I/O 280 and IRQ5 by running WFW networking on same machine
2)Set card to I/O mapped and disabled plug and play (per ether how-to)
3) tried not including I/O address and/or IRQ in modconf installation info.
 
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Rick
