I had the same problem upon upgrading to
2.4.9.  The modules are organized differently.

To get the net xfc up, I have to load modules in this
order on my Dell Inspiron 5000 (obviously, your
ether card may be different) :

pcmcia_core
yenta_socket
ds
cb_enabler
3c59x                  <---- I used to load 3c575_cb but
                                      now one module does it all.

For some reason I still don't udnerstand, the
i82365 module won't load at all on my
machine.  The above setup works, however.

Best,
