I think there is a certian point where they started supporting PCI
NE2000s, and I believe it was a 2.0.3x kernel. It used to be one driver
for ISA or PCI and then it was changed to one for PCI and one for ISA.
I know that the 2.0.36 kernel works great for the Linksys PCI NE2000 I
have at home. I would get 2.0.36 and compile it.
