[tulip] NetGear FA511 card acting erratically

[magicfox]

Hi,

I saw somewhere...
#ifdef __KERNEL__
/* externally defined structs */
...
struct net_device;
...

So I suspect the change_mtu field isn't defined in the struct. If I add 
in ns820.c after #include </linux/netdevices.h>
#undef HAVE_CHANGE_MTU
I can compile it without problem.
Don't ask to me why and if it works, I haven't this hardware.

In case of, and if you can found that, I'm angry to known where those 
externals are defined.
