[I'm currently having nasty ISP problems, so I've removed myself from the list for the time-being, as e-mail is struggling to get through to me -- hence the delay in my reply to this, SORRY]


Probably it's the miss config of PIC. Can you post more info?

Thanks for helping! :-)))

Hi,
I'm getting similar results to Nick Warne, in that when my ethernet is

With a realtec card, I get errors in /var/spool/messages along the
