[tulip] ADMtek AL985 Centaur-P adapter ?

[David Shochat]

Are you using the tulip from scyld.com or are you trying to use the one 
that comes with the kernel distribution? Only the former has ever worked 
for me (using a different variant of the LinkSys card). The reason for 
"ADMtek ..." is that that is the chip that your card actually uses. Mine 
is and ADMTek Comet.
