[tulip] tulip & the 2.2.16 kernel

[Chris Swann]

Hi.  I've got a SMC EtherPower (SMC9332BDT) card that I've been using on
a RedHat 6.2 based system running 2.2.14.  Because of the security
problems with that kernel I upgraded to 2.2.16, and my card is no longer
working (I've tried both the 'tulip' and 'old_tulip' modules with no
luck).  I'm not sure what info will be most helpful, but I have run
tulip-diag under both 2.2.14 and 2.2.16 and have attached the results
below.  Please let me know if there is anything else that would be
helpful.  Here are the results of tulip-diag -f -a -e -m under 2.2.14 (for
which everything works):

Now here are the results under the stock 2.2.16 kernel:

Can anyone shed light on the errors and what I can do to get the card
working again?  I'm not subscribed to the list so I'd appreciate a cc.

Thanks!
