Post the results of "cat /proc/pci", at least the stanza that contains
"Ethernet controller".  For instance, mine looks like:

  Bus  0, device  16, function  0:
    Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 116).
      IRQ 9.
      Master Capable.  Latency=64.  Min Gnt=10.Max Lat=10.
      I/O at 0xc800 [0xc87f].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xefffff80 [0xefffffff].

Also, post the contents of your /etc/modules.conf.

Cheers,
