Does anyone know of any issues surrounding use of the tulip ethernet card

worked fine with the tulip driver under 9.2.
I'm using drakconnect and it is at the select network interface to
configure stage that Drakconnect refuses to detect the ethernet card at
all (It does show the integrated Broadcom NIC on the motherboard). If the
tulip driver is chosen manually, drakconnect refuses to accept it and
returns me to the select network interface to configure stage again.
As a test I installed a 2.4 kernel, and drakconnect works just fine and
allows me to configure my card but of course I want 2.6!
any help appreciated...
Hi Phil,
I'm not sure if this helps. I recently setup an IBM xseries server which has
an onboard Broadcom NIC. Well, mdk9.2 recognize it as tg3 (a driver said
developed by redhat). But, with the server comes a driver CD of the NIC, and
in the readme it says that while the tg3 driver works ok, it's better to
replace it with a driver from the manufacture (mdk recognize it then by
bcm5700).
Maybe you can check the manufature website?
