I'm using static ip's on my network , the network card is an Intel pro/100 VM Netwprk connection, and it's seen as Intel Etherexpress pro/100 under linux.

What should I check for in cat /proc/interrupts??

My PC is a Compaq Evo W4000 with scsi card for HP scanner, Audigy audio card and radeon 8500 video card.

I think I can turn the bios option PnP in the BIOS off. Gonna try.

I first thought the driver was not correctly installed, but also Mandrake and Suse recognize the network card this way. So maybe it's a irq problem. I'd know exactly how to solve it under Win2k, but under Linux...
Thanks a lot
