Newer kernels (not sure if 2.6.14, but certainly 2.6.15-pa1) fix this.

Unlikely.

Add a 100BT card (tulip or e100) and see if that works better.
According to HW DB, j2240 has DEC21143 (tulip) built-in and I would
expect that to work fine.

Based on the /proc/iomem output below, looks like you have two tulip
devices in the machine. Likely the LAN cable is connected to the wrong one.

no problem.

0000:00:03.0 is tulip in slot 3.
0000:01:14.0 is tulip built-in. (my guess)

Note that eth0 is routed to Cujo (not dino) - this tulip is in slot 3.

Do we really need this stuff dumped to console?

Your mailer or capture utility is loosing CRs here.

ok. should be easy now to figure out which is connected (or not).
