I've never heard of the command 'ip' ...neither has my shell path
unforunately :(.

I am curious to see the output of lspci to see what other devices are there.

 64studio:/var/log# grep eth /var/log/dmesg
eth1394: eth0: IEEE-1394 IPv4 over 1394 Ethernet (fw-host0)
eth1394: eth1: IEEE-1394 IPv4 over 1394 Ethernet (fw-host1)

Nothing

If not, try modprobe atl1

Module doesn't exist

Note that the end of the module name is a lowercase "L" followed by the

  Thanks for the help.
   Cheers
