I am have great difficultly getting my network card to come up. I have an internal NIC that uses the tulip driver. I have checked the proc/pci and found the card listed in there. When I do an lsmod I find tulip installed. When I do an ifconfig eth0 up, it returns fine. When I do ifconfig again it lists the information minus the inet address. When I do the lsmod again tulip reports "Used by 1". The IRQ is 5 and io base address is 8c00. No other device is conflicting with the IRQ. Now correct me if I am wrong but should not the light on the back of the card turn on when the card is brought up. If so, why is it not coming on. Even when it is connected to my external cable modem it doesn't turn on. I am running Debian 2.2. I have read, among other things, an article from Byte magazine which I found a link to in the mailing list archive. Some one please help, I have been working on this for a couple of weeks and am getting discouraged. John
