If you're hoping to get the on-board ethernet to work, you probably need
to add two lines to /etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
Then do (as root) '/etc/init.d/network restart'
and you should be good to go (assuming you've got the dhcp3-client
package installed. Since you said DHCP is already working with the
PCMCIA card, I'm guessing you do.
Welcome to Debian!
