[clug-talk] Need drivers

Interesting.  Do you know which cards eth0 and eth3 belong to?  It may
be in your boot log, or the output of 'dmesg'.

Also, do you know if your network cards work in this configuration
when you are using another OS?  It may be a BIOS configuration problem
(IRQ related perhaps.)  Just a thought.
