Try to see if you will have better results with 'de4x5' module instead
if that one is available.  And check what 'dmesg' has to say after
you loaded a module.  You have to 'rmmod tulip' before trying another
one.  To change that permanently you need to edit your /etc/modules.conf
(or this is /etc/modprobe.conf on AC-0.9?).

A number of tulip variations seems to be unbounded.
