Uh, so what IS the problem?  Are you actually having driver problems
with the NIC or some specific problem with NFS?

: I forgot to mension it before, but the reply I get is: 
: mount: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed Out

Aha - so the NIC works, but trying to mount an NFS share on that machine
does not.

Is the NFS server running Debian?  Some BSD NFS servers don't get along
well with the NFS support in Linux.  Did you edit /etc/exports on the
server to allow access from the new machine?  Have you inserted the NFS
module or compiled NFS support into the kernel on the new machine?  Have
you examined the logs on the server to see if a connection is being
attempted, but denied?
