Just use the isa ne2000/1000 driver from the list and don't use any pci
drivers it will detect it and run fine I've been doing it for the past 9
months, Well any thing after 1.3.18 (or somewhere around there maybe higher)
will work ok. my card uses
i/o= 0x6100 and irq = 11  and it is detected and setup without any need to
give any parameters on the command line etc etc  :)
