Lance/ PCnet32 driver in 2.1.84

I have a 486 MASQ box that I attempted to upgrade to 2.1.84... It has 1
BocaLan VLB, which is a Vesa bus PCnet/32 card, and an HP Lance/ISA card.
the new kernel succesfully configures the ISA card, but not the VLB. Here
is syslog output:

kernel: eth0: PCnet/ISA 79C960 at 0x340, 08 00 09 2c 23 6e HP J2405A IRQ 12 DMA 3.
kernel: assigned IRQ 12, assigned DMA 3.
kernel: lance.c:v1.09 Aug 20 1996 dplatt@3do.com, becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov

2.0.33 gives the following:

kernel: eth0: PCnet32 at 0x300, 00 c0 6d 13 9b 97, probed IRQ 9, no DMA needed.
kernel: lance32.c:v0.10 28.4.96 tsbogend@bigbug.franken.de
kernel: eth1: PCnet/ISA 79C960 at 0x340, 08 00 09 2c 23 6e HP J2405A IRQ 12 DMA 3.
kernel: assigned IRQ 12, assigned DMA 3.
kernel: lance.c:v1.09 Aug 20 1996 dplatt@3do.com, becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov

.config contains:

CONFIG_LANCE=y
CONFIG_NET_EISA=y
CONFIG_PCNET32=y

nm /usr/src/linux/vmlinux | grep pcnet32 gives:

c018bb30 t pcnet32_close
c01ac710 d pcnet32_debug
c018bbd0 t pcnet32_get_stats
c018b140 t pcnet32_init_ring
c018b5c0 t pcnet32_interrupt
c018af20 t pcnet32_open
c01b251c d pcnet32_portlist
c01b1c30 T pcnet32_probe
c01b1ce0 t pcnet32_probe1
c018b0f0 t pcnet32_purge_tx_ring
c018b220 t pcnet32_restart
c018b900 t pcnet32_rx
c018bc40 t pcnet32_set_multicast_list
c018b280 t pcnet32_start_xmit

so the code is evidentally there... just never initialized(?)

Please email me for more info, if necissary.
