This is not the case since that support was removed in December 2001. A user with an old tulip may thus be tricked into configuring the wrong driver. (I was, on my PMac 4400.) The patch below removes this misinformation from tulip's Kconfig. /Mikael --- linux-2.5.69/drivers/net/tulip/Kconfig.~1~ 2003-05-05 22:56:29.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.5.69/drivers/net/tulip/Kconfig 2003-05-14 18:27:19.000000000 +0200 @@ -37,7 +37,7 @@ ---help--- This driver is developed for the SMC EtherPower series Ethernet cards and also works with cards based on the DECchip - 21040/21041/21140 (Tulip series) chips.
