I had no problems with 2.2.16 when I first installed it, nor with 2.2.17
when I upgraded. There's nothing tricky about it.

1. Make sure your kernel is compiled to use the tulip driver, AS A MODULE.
2. Compile the "new" files per the instructions at the end of each file.
3. Move the two .o files to /lib/modules/2.2.16/net.

Here's a makefile if you like. Put it and the two source files in their
own directory and just `make`.

all: pci-scan.o tulip.o
        cp pci-scan.o tulip.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/net

pci-scan.o:     pci-scan.c pci-scan.h kern_compat.h
        gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c pci-scan.c

tulip.o:        tulip.c pci-scan.h kern_compat.h
        gcc -DMODULE -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c tulip.c
