Thanks Donald.  The download worked like a charm using ncftpget.  This 
is for a system I am building at another site, so I won't get to try 
the new drivers until tonight.

The reason that I was interested is because I just installed Debian on 
an AlphaStation 200.  With the 2.2 kernel and drivers the on board 
network supported worked fine.  When when I built a 2.4.22 kernel the 
network driver failed.  I ended up using the de4x5 driver after seeing 
a note from some else about the pre15 drivers.  Does this make sense to 
you?  In any case, I will give the latest and greatest a try tonight 
and let you know.

Thanks again,

Bill
