Me again...

Okay I have a Tulip (DEC21143) ethernet card in my mac. I can use this under Mac os.
lspci -v shows:
00:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip21142/43 (rev 30)
        Subsystem: Standard Microsystems Corp [SMC]: Unknow Device 2401
        Flags: bus master, meduim devsel, latency 96, IRQ 23
        I/O ports at 0400
        Memory at 80800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled]
        Expansion ROM at 80840000 [disabled]

When i boot i get

eth0: DC21143 at 0x0400 (PCI bus 0, device 13), h/w address 00:....,
        and requiers IRQ23 (provided by PCI BIOS)
de4x5.c:V0.544 1999/5/8 davies@maniac.ultranet.com

This is the wrong driver, on my slack box with the same type of card i get :

tulip.c:v0.89H 5/23/98 becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov
eth0: Digital DS21142/3 Tulip at 0xe000, 00 00 c5 53 5b 9f, IRQ 11.

In slack tulip is a modules, so i tried modprobe tulip on the mac and:
/lib/modules/2.2.15-2.9.0/net/tulip.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
/lib/modules/2.2.15-2.9.0/net/tulip.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.15-2.9.0/net/tulip.o failed
/lib/modules/2.2.15-2.9.0/net/tulip.o: insmod tulip failed

I belive this is because of the de4x5.c thing, so i tried booting with the params
"reserve=0x0400,32"
and i get the same errors, is there any boot parm to spesify the driver?

Thanks! - GoRN Out -
