I guess you did it but it never hurts to make sure: Are the modules get 
loaded/compiled into the kernel ? Are the configurations files correct ?

I have an odd problem with an NE2000 ISA card. It also does not do it job after rebooting the machine unless I unplug the cable and then restore it back. It is like this action triggers the card to start do its network job. Perhaps this is your problem too ? Has anyone else encounters it and/or knows/have suggestions how it can be solved ?
