	Hi, I own a Intel Anypoint 1mbps Home Network PCI card.  This network card
utilizes the phone lines that are in your home as its media, and is based on
Intel's 21145 chipset.  I am running kernel 2.4.1 and have tried loading the
Tulip driver as a module using 'insmod tulip.o options=18, 0x200'.  The
driver seems to have some level of recognition for the card; it recognizes
that it is a Intel 21145 chip as well as it's MAC address.  Once the module
is loaded I cannot ping any other computers on my network, and errors are
reported when I type 'ifconfig'.  I downloaded and ran Donald Becker's Tulip
diagnostics program and it gave me the following output:

(run while the module was not loaded)
