Hi Brian,
I would like to thank you for providing the patch to get the Intel 
Anypoint 1Mbps PCI card to work with the tulip driver!  I have applied 
the patch and it works great.  I hope you get the assistance to 
integrate the patch into the official driver.  I'm sure many others 
would appreciate it.
