Jonathan,
it was quit odd but I found the problem.
I own a SE440BX-2 Intel motherboard and I had upgraded the BIOS Flash
to version 16. When I reconfired my motherboard I set the Plug and Play
Operating System flag to YES. Later I turned this flag to NO and the
problem with my ethernet ugli duckling card disappeared.
Perhaps I should report this problem...
Thanks for your attention.
