Some cards require that the plug and play option be disabled in order to
work under linux. I know this from experience with some of the 3COM cards.
In that case, I downloaded the DOS (yes, DOS!) software to do so from the
3COM web site. I think one can also disable it from inside Windows 98
before switching to linux. I did that on another machine, but I haven't
actually installed linux yet to test it.
Maybe you brother is having a similar problem.
