[realtek] configuration problems with 2 SMC EZCard 10/100

[Patrick May]

I am using a SuSE 6.3 box as a firewall / proxy server for a
home network.  Do I need to pass the RealTek module any
options when it is loaded to get it to properly support both
cards?

Right now I am testing the two cards using one connection to
the rest of my network.  When it is connected to eth0, I can
ping, but when I switch the cable to eth1, it hangs.

Ifconfig returns the following information:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:E0:29:5E:F7:58
          inet addr:192.168.0.200  Bcast:192.168.0.255
Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          RX packets:467 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

          TX packets:22 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0

          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
          Interrupt:5 Base address:0xd000

eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:E0:29:5F:17:31
          inet addr:192.168.0.201  Bcast:192.168.0.255
Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          RX packets:26 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
          Interrupt:10 Base address:0xb800

eth1 has no other interrupt conflicts.

Currently, my modules.conf lines are:

alias eth0 rl18139
alias eth1 rl18139

Does this seem like a driver problem, or a problem with my
tcp/ip setup?

I am using version 1.08 of the driver -- could someone point
me to a howto, etc. for re-compiling a module so that I can
use the 1.10 driver?

Thanks,
