I had the same problem with my 5400/160.
Just because it can see the card doesn't meant that it will work. I had a
Farallon card in the PCI slot with NEC chip set, The chip set was listed in
the selection of Ethernet cards.
I finally went with an Apple 10BT card in the comm slot and that worked.
You could try adding the tulip driver to the config file and see if that
works.
/etc/modules.conf:
Then enter
alias eth0 tulip
As always be careful with all modifications to your system.
