tulip woes

w/ 2.4.18-pre7-ac1, I get the following:

Jan 30 07:43:47 pinky kernel: Linux Tulip driver version 0.9.15-pre9

The nic is connected to a 100mbit hub, hence the autonegotion defaulting to 10baseT makes it pretty useless. It works fine w/ 2.4.10-ac12's tulip driver. I also tried the tulip-1.1.8 driver from the tulip sourceforge page, as well as compiling 2.4.18-pre7-ac1's tulip driver w/out CONFIG_TULIP_MWI and CONFIG_TULIP_MMIO; they all had autonegotiation fail.

Kevin Hendricks sent me a patch for this, that I need to merge.

I'll dig it out after I return from LinuxWorld and post it here. Additional testers such as yourself are definitely welcome.

Still waiting for this fix to appear in the -ac tree.. as of 2.4.19-pre2-ac3, the problem persists. Tarring up the tulip directory in 2.4.10-ac12, and copying it over to the current kernel works, as a temporary workaround.
