network card problem



i'm installing two new pcs at work, one with solaris x86 and one with debian
so that i can show my employer how much nicer debian is. unfortunately
there is one major problem: the hamm cd i have is not successfully detecting
the ne2k (well, encore enl832tx, which has a realtek chipset according to
the tech support guy) pci 10/100 ethernet card on the machine. i've read the
ethernet-howto and disabled pnp support in the bios in case it was causing
problems, but i can't directly disable pnp on the card. solaris did detect
it fine. any ideas as to how to get this working?

please keep me cc'd to the reply, i am not subscribed to -user.
tia,
