Hello!

I was not able to get my smc8432 (DEC 21041 Tulip) card working with
2.0.24.

After restoring tulip.c to the 2.0.23 version, it works fine again.

I got the message "eth0: enabling BNC port" repeating after some seconds,
but the interface does never come up.

Hardware is a Cabriolet with a SMC card:
Bus 0, device 5, function 0:
Ethernet controller: DEC DC21041 (rev 17).

I think the patch for tulip.c was not very perfect ;-)
