I believe that people will correct me here.
in my general understanding /sbin/ifup and /sbin/ifdown scripts
will go to your network config scripts ((RedHat8) have them in
/etc/sysconfig/networking/ ) and initialize your nic or UNinitialize it
ifup for example runs dhclient to get an ip from the DHCP server.
ifdown will do the opposite , it will make the computer think that it
has no nic (including address cache cleaning and lots of other stuff).

I have 3c59x module too but here  1 in the "used" row.

I think that up to here it is OK. Kernel loaded NET and IP support

As you could see kernel IP support working

Indicates several things
1. no hardware link (network cable)
2. hardware malfunction (your nic is gone)
3. bad driver
4. uninitialized card.

What doesn't work? try ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up 
what does it say? if nothing much then ping 10.0.0.1  

any responce? what does ifconfig says?

> Any more ideas? 
checkout http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/man/tc575_cb.4.html
it is a module called 3c575_cb that should be your card's driver
you don't have it in your lsmod output you have 3c59x but i don't think
that it is the right driver.
good luck!
