I've combed the archives and found this same problem but none of the
solutions that worked for others worked for me.
The message I keep getting is:
tulip.o: unresolved symbol __kfree_skb_R33abe94a
tulip.o: unresolved symbol dev_close_R8da92aa7
tulip.o: unresolved symbol eth_type_trans_R96395552
tulip.o: unresolved symbol netif_rx_Rf2799e21
tulip.o: unresolved symbol unregister_netdev_R4d34aaeb
tulip.o: unresolved symbol skb_over_panic_R8c41de6b
tulip.o: unresolved symbol init_etherdev_Rf393f939
tulip.o: unresolved symbol alloc_skb_R58ff4843
tulip.o: unresolved symbol eth_copy_and_sum_R3579512e
This is what I have tried:
downloading _all previous versions of netdrivers*_, running depmod -a,
running 'make; insmod pci-scan.o ' fine so far, never any errors, then
'insmod tulip.o' gives me the same message each time, and putting
tulip.o in the /lib/modules tree results in an 
'depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.17/net/tulip.o'
every time.  Here is the lspci -v output:
00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0985 (rev 11)
        Subsystem: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0570
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11
        I/O ports at e000
        Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
        Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2

which Donald identifies as an ADMtek Centaur-P chip to someone else in
an earlier post. 
'dmesg' lists nothing about the card, and 'cat /proc/interrupts'
leaves IRQ 11 unassigned and makes no mention of the card.
It seems this module doesn't work for me.
I am running the stock 2.2.17pre6 kernel image that comes with Debian
2.2 and have tried compiling the kernel with the modules as described
on the scyld.com page with similarly success.  That was sometime in
November and I can't remember the output anymore.
What's left?  Thank you for any suggestions.
