I'm not sure if this can translate to linux...but I had some problems with
those cards in windows. By default, the "Cable Detect" was turned on...so,
every 15 seconds or so, it would check for a cable. It none was plugged in,
I would hear a skip in whatever media was playing, and sometimes it would
freeze me up. Maybe the same thing is happening in linux??
Long shot,
Matt

I have narrowed them down to the network card that I'm using. Has anyone
had problems with Xircom RealPort Ethernet/Modem combo cards? The specific
card model is RBEM56G-100. The odd part of this problem is that Redhat 8
works great with this laptop/nic combo. Are there some driver issues with
Mandrake 9? Any links, tips or feedback greatly appreciated. I have other
cards I can try, but the challenge of figuring this out is interesting (at
least for now).
