I too keep getting this problem when ever I update to the next Fedora
Kernel (using 2.4.22-1.2087.nptl now). I fist freaked, thinking
something was wrong with my card. So I rebooted with Knoppix and my NIC
was fine. I then shutdown from Knoppix and came up in Fedora Beta 2 and
now my NIC works. I have to do that every time I update the kernel (From
Fedora).

Just my experience.
