Wrong hardware address for ethernet card

[AATIF KHAN <aatif@umr.edu>]

Hi,
  Has anyone had problems with the kernel reading the wrong ethernet 
hardware address?  I'm using a D-Link DFE-530TX card and the via-rhine 
driver.  I've just done a clean installation of Slink off a cd.  When the 
machine starts up, the first two digit of the hardware address for the 
ethernet card are 83 instead of 00 (as the address on the card says).  
I'm pretty sure this is a software roblem becuase I've tried it with two 
separate cards (same model, just different addresses).  If anyone can 
help, I would appreciate it.  Thanks.
