Hi all! I would just like to thank everybody for the attention for my problem with my tulip card. In case someone want to know what I have done to get it working here's what I have done:
I visited the address told by Gary http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/tulip.html which I already knew but, due to my lack of knowledge, I thought it would be too dificult to compile. Anyway I tryed and it worked! Gary told me that even the most recent ditributions weren't being released with the latest module driver, so the only and last alternative was to try compiling the driver module. I had to compile the driver on another machine because I installed debian from floppies and the rest of the system would be using APT. Folowing the instructions on the page and messing a little with the the include path I finally produced a "tulip.o" archive. Using a diskete I copied this archieve to the directory where the modules reside, booted the system and ....... ping worked! If anyone would like the driver I compiled, I wouldn't mind to send it directly to the addresses of anyone who ask me, if you don't mind about the something like NSA_KEY that I found on the code :))))) Please, just kiding! The archive is only 36644 bytes long, so sending it wouldn't be any problem. :) Thank you eveverybody! Jose Roberto
