D-Link NIC problem



I have upgraded from my Linksys PCI lan card to a D-Link
DFE-530TX PCI card.  I recompiled my 2.2.14 kernel using
the via-rhine driver.  My eth0 interface shows up when
I execute ifconfig as follows:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 83:50:BA:B3:3D:C4  
          inet addr:192.168.1.1  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::8350:bab3:3dc4/10 Scope:Link
          inet6 addr: fe80::8150:baff:feb3:3dc4/10 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:138 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:459 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 
          Interrupt:15 Base address:0xfc80 

lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3924  Metric:1
          RX packets:348 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:348 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol  
          inet addr:38.31.65.206  P-t-P:38.1.1.1  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:186 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:180 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:10 

sl0       Link encap:Serial Line IP  
          inet addr:192.168.1.11  P-t-P:192.168.1.12  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:39 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:10 

However, when I try to ping any of the hosts on my network, all
packets are lost.  I have changed nothing except the driver when
changing the NICs.  All configuration files are the same as far
as I know.

When booting, part of the screen data shows the following:
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 44k freed
Adding Swap: 128516k swap-space (priority -1)
diald uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET)
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
registered device ppp0
PPP BSD Compression module registered
PPP Deflate Compression module registered

I don't recall if I had the IPv6 message before with the old
NIC.

Can anyone offer any pointers?  Thanks much for any help.
