Dave,
Somewhere in the /etc/modules.conf you should have a line like this:
alias eth1 tulip
If you are using Debian of course, run modconf as Art suggested or
edit the right file in /etc/modutils (probably /etc/modules/arch/i386)
and add a line in there. Then when you run update-modules it will
regenerate the /etc/modules.conf.
The other file you want to edit is /etc/network/interfaces. You
need to add two lines in there something like this:
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
Take out the auto eth1 if you don't want it the driver to load up
automatically on boot. The /etc/init.d/networking script is the one
that calls ifup -a which looks at /etc/network/interfaces to see what
interfaces you have.
