If you are interested you can use the new console, it works more like you would 
expect. Please notice the capslock LED doesn't work in GNUMach 1.3 and older.

I have never heared about this problem before. Do you see a message? Do you use 
swap? Have you tried building GNUMach yourself? Do you have shared IRQs?

I can't help you with the NIC problem at the moment. You could have a look at 
gnumach-1.3/i386/README-Drivers in the gnumach1.3 source tarball to see if 
GNUMach 1.3 spports your hardware. You can do the same for OSKIT:
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/oskit
(OSKIT is used for driver for the newest GNUMach version)

Perhaps it already works because the nic won't be listed in /dev. Have you 
tried setting up the pfinet translator?

Just create the device.
cd /dev;./MAKEDEV hd2
(for example)
