Good point, but no, I'm running testing, and it's a more basic problem
than DHCP. Packets appear on the wire but nothing's ever received via
the card. You'll appreciate that this following is manually cut'n'paste,
with bits chopped out where I feel it's appropriate:

Looking through this again as I copy-type it, it looks like the card
is registered on IRQ 10, but the driver's not claimed it in time. So
the kernel disables it and voila I never get any data received interrupts.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Chris
