There *have* been problems, lots, with the tulip and de4x5 driver on Alpha:
frequently the automatic interface recognition does not work. We never
figured out how (for me the "solution" found together with Loic was to
patch tulip to not be smart and then find an input port on the hub I'm
connected to where it worked ...).
