Yeah, I just didn't get to edit the interfaces file before I had to leave for work this morning. It clearly saw the card, but it couldn't connect through. I had the "aha" right before I had to leave.

I should have it set up this evening. That will be a relief. It's been a hard road. The CD-ROM drive on this laptop fails intermittently, so it's always a crapshoot when you have to use it for any length of time. I'm dying to get the networking up so I can quit messing with it.
