The EEPRO100 driver does not work with onboard Intel Ethernet ExpressPRO/100+. I had to download the intel driver found at http://support.intel.com/support/network/adapter/pro100/pro100plus/s oftware.htm Could you roll this "official" driver into your release? I have found this problem with kernels 2.2.14 & 2.2.16 -Noah
The e100 driver is in the beta.
