+                Tulip ethernet card driver
+
+The Tulip driver is developed by Donald Becker and changed by
+Takashi Manabe. This driver is designed to work with PCI ethernet
+cards which use the DECchip DC21x4x family. This driver hopefully
+works with all of 1.2.x and 1.3.x kernels, but I tested only
+with 1.2.13, 1.3.39, 1.3.49, 1.3.52, 1.3.57 and later.
+
+Hopefully, the de4x5.c driver will support all cards supported
+by the tulip.c driver. However, the SMC's 9332dst card and some
+cards do not work with the de4x5.c driver. So, if your card is
+not a 9332dst, please try the de4x5.c driver first.

+Known bug(s)
+============
+This driver's media detection is very simple and sometimes
+it causes serious problem. The driver automatically switches
+media when it causes timeout. If you want to speficy or to fix
+a media;
+
+- Modify TULIP_PORT in tulip.c, line 33.
+- Uncommennt the definition of TULIP_FIX_PORT in tulip.c, line 40.
+
+or
+
+- Use patched ifconfig command and specify 'link='. The patch
+  against ifconfig.c in net-tools-1.3.50-BETA6e is included in
+  this file.
