Now I have tried it (the 0.92t from the test directory). It worked nice on the 
system I used to test it, a SMP 2.2.17 with raid and ata100 patches, but I 
have not yet confirmed it on my initial problem system here, neither have I 
confirmed my initial problems on the 2.2.17 box (I'll try to do that today).

If my test here is positive (meaning that the 0.92t driver fixes the problem on 
a system where the problem appears) I'll fire off a mail to whoever is the 
kernelside tulip maintainer/integrator.

Is there reason to believe that the 0.92t also will fix my KNE110TX unable-to-
renegotiate-link problem? Is there a tulip changelog available?

So far I'm happy here.

Yours,
-Simen
