Re: [vox-tech] tulip.c and DEC nic's

1 Linksys EtherFast card has been the bane of my existance. I have seen in
the last few days 4 postings with others having the same problem with the
chip 4 and over I think. I am now working on getting an old D-Link DE220
working. I can not connect to the internet with my cable modem with Linux.
So I am forced to use M$ Winblows. I will have it up and running soon
though.

I had problems with tulip.c and Linksys EtherFast Cards. The tulip.c version
shipped with Mandrake 7.0 or with the NIC itself (don't remember the version
number, perhaps 0.92) did not function. We ended up getting SMB cards
instead.
