15 Oct - 16 Oct (10 posts): Problems with Tulip driver in 2.2 and 2.4

J. S. Connell reported a problem with the Tulip driver in 2.2 and 2.4, and
David Rees [*] confirmed having a similar problem. He remarked, "I've
noticed this behavior for a few kernel revisions now, up to and including
2.2.17. It would be nice to get this bug worked out before 2.2.18." But Alan
Cox [*] said, "I dont think that is likely to happen. Every time someone
touches the tulip driver close to release they fix one card and break
another 8(." .....
====================

I'm just remembering a chain awhile back re new LinkSys cards
working/not-working.
