Here is the output from the kernels I've tested to try to get the
driver working:

2.4.4-ac6, this kernel works!

tulip-diag.c:v2.06 1/8/2001 Donald Becker (becker@scyld.com)

Index #1: Found a Digital DC21041 Tulip adapter at 0xd800.
Digital DC21041 Tulip chip registers at 0xd800:
 0x00: ffe08000 ffffffff ffffffff 0129f000 0129f200 fc660000 fffe2002

 0x40: fffe0000 ffff03ff ffffffff fffe0000 000001c8 ffffef05 ffffff3f

 Port selection is half-duplex.
 Transmit started, Receive started, half-duplex.
  The Rx process state is 'Waiting for packets'.
  The Tx process state is 'Idle'.
  The transmit unit is set to store-and-forward.
  The NWay status register is 000001c8.
   No MII transceivers found!
  Internal autonegotiation state is 'Autonegotiation disabled'.

 Let me know if I can provide any more useful information about the
driver problem.
