The "tulip" driver is part of the standard Linux source tree, so unless the version they're pointing to had special modifications, you should be able to just look in your standard Linux sources to find it. Support for the Linksys board is probably standard in 2.2.18 (which contains quite a bit of stuff back-ported from the 2.4 series), as well as the current 2.4 kernels. An aside - beware using these Tulip-like boards in an Alpha. In my system (based on the noname motherboard), an old Netgear card (based on an actual Digital 21140) works fine, but a more recent one (based on a Lite-On chip) is unstable. The newer board works fine in an Intel-based Linux system, however, so I think the problem is with the driver. (Or it could be some weird hardware incompatibility between the Digital PCI implementation on the motherboard and the PCI on the card.) One page with info on the Tulip driver that I have managed to find: http://www.phy.duke.edu/brahma/beowulf/linux/drivers/tulip.html -- but some of the things that this page links to (including the cesdis site) seem to be dead. - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
