[tulip] Compaq Presario 5686 Desktop problems

[Thor]

I'm running Mandrake 8.0 on the above mentioned pc, which, I believe, has the network circuitry on the mainboard.  Even though the network reports to be working ok, I'm unable to get the card up and running - and it works ok under windows. 
The diagnostic messages are posted below, and I wonder if there is anything I can do to solve my problem (other than bying a new network card:-).
I have tried to force 10mbps + half-duplex since there seem to be a problem with mii interrupt, but I must be missing some information here? Even if link-beat is registered, there is no green light at the hub.

Regards,
Thor Vadstein
