I've got two question regarding networking. I've got a machine with a D-Link DFE 530-TX network card
Problem 1:

I'm no windows expert (the only reason why I got the machine was to run Linux) so I have no idea what is happening. Does anyone have an idea?
Is "PNP OS" set to "no" in the BIOS? (When set to "yes", Windows can reconfigure the hardware setting in a way that doesn't make sense to Linux.)
Problem 2:

mommo kernel: eth0: MII PHY found at address 8, status 0x7829 advertising 01e1 Link 0021

I'm not sure. This may be a problem that disappears if you get the first problem taken care of. Christopher Reimer
