I have upgraded from my Linksys PCI lan card to a D-Link
DFE-530TX PCI card. I recompiled my 2.2.14 kernel using
the via-rhine driver. My eth0 interface shows up when
I execute ifconfig as follows:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 83:50:BA:B3:3D:C4

However, when I try to ping any of the hosts on my network, all
packets are lost. I have changed nothing except the driver when
changing the NICs. All configuration files are the same as far
as I know.
When booting, part of the screen data shows the following:
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 44k freed
Adding Swap: 128516k swap-space (priority -1)
diald uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET)
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
eth0: no IPv6 routers present
registered device ppp0
PPP BSD Compression module registered
PPP Deflate Compression module registered
I don't recall if I had the IPv6 message before with the old
NIC.
Can anyone offer any pointers? Thanks much for any help.

Russ
