What's the first problem you run into?  Here is a simplified step-by-step
on how to get it working:

1. Compile pci-netif.c (Compile command is at the bottom of the source).
2. Compile tulip.c
3. modprobe pci-netif
4. modprobe tulip


Also I would just like to say that my LNE100TX worked right off the bat
with 2.3.99pre3.  :)
