I'd guess this isn't in the docs as it's probably considered 'general' knowledge and thus not LEAF-specific. When you insmod the driver it is possible to pass specific options to the card, for example duplexity and such. In your case those options are confusingly different for each version of the tulip driver. I know of 3 different drivers for kernel 2.4 right now : Donald Becker (http://www.scyld.com/network/tulip.html), the built-in kernel (apparently from http://sourceforge.net/projects/tulip/, but the version is newer), and Jamal Hadi from Zynx who works on NAPI & Tulip in general (http://www.cyberus.ca/~hadi/patches/). I don't know which tulip driver is best, but I'd try the latest built-in kernel version before the other two. Most of the media types & options to pass should be listed in /drivers/net/tulip/tulip_core.c. FYI Donald Becker's page seems a lot more clear and lists the media types on the URL given, so try that one if you have problems with duplexity or speed negotiation.
