bug: de2104x driver in 2.5.1

[Erik Hensema]

Last weekend my cablemodem connection went dead. I was running 2.5.1 using
the de2104x driver (previously the tulip driver).

Can you please download and test the current de2104x driver from gkernel
cvs?  (http://sf.net/projects/gkernel , cvs modules "linux_2_4" or
"linux_2_5")

There are very important bugfixes in there...
