OK... what's the output from "make modules && make modules_install"? |
| 26 |
(when in /usr/src/linux) What does "modprobe tulip" return if you run |
| 27 |
it *immediately* after "make modules && make modules_install" - i.e. |
| 28 |
without rebooting first? |

According to Google, your card has the same chipset as mine, so the |
| 31 |
options I posted should work. If you're still having trouble, I can |
| 32 |
post the relevant part of my .config. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Speaking of chipsets - what does 'lspci' (sys-apps/pciutils) say about |
| 35 |
the card? |
