This has been reported in the linux-atm mailing list as well..
/usr/src/linux/net/atm/proc.c has a problem.
in 2.4.0-test9 and later, the routine atm_proc_dev_register(); is called
before atm_proc_init();
the latter is called at the very end of startup, long after the pci
devices are
initialized. This results in the /proc devices being in /proc/eni:1 or
/proc/wuapic:1
not in /proc/net/atm/eni:1 or /proc/net/atm/wuapic:1
here is a quicky patch to correct this.
