Hi. Well interestingly enough, when I do a lsmod, there are no modules listed. But when the kernel is booting, it tells me the driver version and all the information regarding the card itself such as mac address. So I believe that this means that the driver is in the kernel? I believe this is so, however for some reason the tulip driver might not be loading?
