Hello!
I'm having problems with the tulip driver included in
RedHat 7.2. My first issue is, I can't tell what version
is the "latest" tulip driver. 0.92-pre3(?) was 7.2's,
we bumped up to 0.92-pre6 (dated Nov 3) with a new kernel.
But on Sourceforge, it's up to 1.1.8, dated June 16, 2001...
The problem I'm seeing - when I power cycle my pc and
Linux loads, I don't get a link light. If I stop networking,
rmmod the tulip driver, modprobe tulip, and restart networking,
it's fine. In fact, after I power cycle, the driver says it
can't find an MII transceiver. After I reload the driver,
it finds it fine.
Any idea? Here's the output of tulip-diag -aa -ee -mm before
and after reloading the driver. What's more peculiar - I see
that sometimes it finds the MII transceiver at a different address.
When it does, the network also does not work.
I suspect something with the hardware, but I haven't seen this
problem with 2.2 versions of the kernel.
