Entering this really late, and by no means a kernel-expert.
However, I seem to recall the original post mentioned the KT400
chipset. I never could get this to work properly with any kernel
prior to 2.4.22. I do know that I have used this net card without
problem with all flavors of the 2.4.xx kernel series on a different
machine.
Not sure if this will be helpful or not.
