I have a NetGear FA-310TX (DEC 21141) NIC in my new B&W G3 running kernel 2.2.6.
The kernel detects the card and gives me an eth1 interface, but I can't pass any traffic into or out of the interface, and I get some strange kernel
messages:

eth0: BMAC+ at 00:50:e4:20:d7:43
The PCI BIOS has not enabled this device! Updating PCI command
0000->0005.
tulip.c:v0.89H 5/23/98 [email protected]

eth1: Digital DS21140 Tulip at 0x1080, 40 00 35 05 fc db, IRQ 23.
eth1:  MII transceiver found at MDIO address 0, config 1000 status 7809.
eth1:  Advertising 01e1 on PHY 0, previously advertising 01e1.

0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000

I'm not certain exactly what causes this message to be printed, though. Has
anyone else got the Tulip NICs to work in a B&W G3??
