NetGear FA310TX on a 486 MB

[Louis Novak]

Hey Folks,

I'm trying to get a Netgear FA310TX 10/100 working on my ASUS
PCI/I-486SPSG motherboard.

It's works under Windows 95 but I get this on RH5.0/Linux 2.0.36:

[root@fairone lmn]#  /sbin/insmod tulip debug=7 options=5,16
/lib/modules/2.0.36/net/tulip.o: init_module: Device or resource busy

I'm using:
static const char version[] = "tulip.c:v0.91 4/14/99
becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov\n";

I don't know if my hardware is too old or I'm caught in a P&P trap or
what.

I'm out of my league and hope I'm not intruding on yours.

Output of tulip-diag, cat /proc/pci and cat /proc/interrupts are below
the sig

Thanks in advance for any pointers.
