Okay, removing the second card and rerunning adsl-setup returned 
previous functionality.
All the same, I'm disappointed.  I want to network this machine with my 
iBook so I can share files, internet and printer.
I must be doing something wrong.  I've never tried to do this kind of 
thing before.
Where's there a how to?  Most information I find seems to assume that I 
know stuff that I don't already know.
