Re: ethernet card driver

Hm, neither of those seemed to work.  I also manually installed 8390.o; no
diff.

yomama:~# modprobe tulip
/lib/modules/2.2.17/net/tulip.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.2.17/net/tulip.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.17/net/tulip.o
failed
/lib/modules/2.2.17/net/tulip.o: insmod tulip failed
yomama:~# 

Same behavior with old_tulip (s/tulip/old_tulip/g).  Any other ideas?
