Hey Gang,

I already had the tulip driver and the via-rhine driver*, in
/lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdk/net.  But,
# insmod -v via-rhine.o
Using via-rhine.o
Symbol version prefix ''
via-rhine.o: init_module: Device or resource busy

#ifconfig
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3924  Metric:1
          RX packets:1403 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:1403 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 

(no eth*)

# adsl-start
# adsl-status 
Note: You have enabled demand-connection; adsl-status may be inaccurate.
adsl-status: Link is down (can't read pppoe PID file
/var/run/pppoe.conf-adsl.pid.pppoe)

*I've read advice from people who swear that each is the right driver for
the D-Link DFE-530TX

Please help me.  Going insane.
