tulip V90k

[Douglas Eadline]

I tried tulip version 90k today with the following results:

1. Using a Lite On  (netGear)

Boots OK, but bad performance

2. Using KTI 221TX (DEC 21143) NIC

Feb  5 11:34:28 coyote4 kernel: eth0: Digital DS21143 Tulip rev 65 at
0xec00, EEPROM not present, 00 4c 69 6e 75 79, IRQ 0.

Previously .90f worked with this card

3. Using 21140 Netgear NIC

It recognized the NIC at boot, but would not work.  If I
did an "ifdown, rmmod tulip, insmod tulip, ifup", it works OK.


Previoulsy with 90f everything worked OK.
Using, 90f, I  upgraded to 2.0.36 and now find that both the
KTI (21143) and the Netgear (21140) need the 
"ifdown, rmmod tulip, insmod tulip, ifup" after the
system is booted to work (perhaps 2.0.36 needs  something
upgraded I'm using a Rh 5.1 distribution)

The lite On comes up OK and works as good as it can
with 2.0.36
