I haven't tried my dual athlon box yet although it has a NIC using the e100 
driver which works on a laptop.

For the tulip and r8169 (Dual P-III), they are both recognized, driver loaded 
but then trying to ping other systems I get "Destination Host Unreachable".  
I get the same "Destination Host Unreachable" if I try pinging the FC2 box 
from another system.  If all systems are running FC1, then everything works.
