Problems with DecTulip in KNE 100TX

[Miquel Gilibert]

 Hello everybody,
I had a problem with the Tulip driver in Linux for a Kingston PCI
100 TX network adapter with the 21143 chipset.

 We had two types of network adapters: one type still had the old
Digital Chipset on it, while the other type just had the Intel 
Chipset on it. The first type of network adapters would work OK while
the second type, the ones with the Intel Chipset would not work with
the 2.2.5 version of the kernel and the standard tulip.c driver.

Finally, I could solve it by putting in kernel 2.2.9 and the last 
version of the tulip driver (version 0.91e from May 27).

I am just providing this information in case anyone experiences the 
same difficulties.
