If you can I suggest you to upgrade your kernel. A few days ago the latest was 2.4.3. It is a general advice trying to get the latest kernel/drivers. Since vendors do not usually give you updated Linux drivers, you have to look for them yourself. I do no have tested eepro100 with pcmcia, but I ran into trouble with my sis900 and the trouble vanished when I got Linux 2.4.2. I hope your problem will be solved.
