However I've just discovered a workaround for this problem: The NIC and my SB Live! soundcard shares the same IRQ. If I tried to configure the NIC before the soundcard I got the message I've described. But if I configured soundcard first and then NIC, it worked without any problem. However it's only a workaround and this problem should be fixed.
