If you only install ONE card does the system recognize the card?  
Linksys recently changed the tulip chipset used on their card and you 
have to compile the kernel (or module) with THEIR tulip.c file off the 
driver disk.  Their card is currently NOT compatable with the generic 
tulip driver in the distribution kernel,  I have several of these 
cards and was rather stumped till I looked on the driver disk and 
found a Linux directory containing a tulip.c file.
