Alpha problem with networking support with sk98lin -> oops on bringing up interfaces

Alpha problem with networking support with sk98lin -> oops on bringing up interfaces

[Dru]

I have a alpha box which I can't get nerworking working with my sk98lin 
cards. I had other weird problems with trying a few other network cards 
so it might not be just the sk98lin one. The onboard network card works 
fine on 2.6.9 with a customised build, sk98lin fails every time.

Card types: D-Link DGE-530T cards. I've tried different cards of same 
model so i dont think its a hardware fault.

Kernels tried:
2.6.6
2.6.8.1
2.6.9

Orginal output from one oops with 2.6.8:

Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information.  I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc.  ksymoops -h explains the options.
