I was expecting the bootup process to detect the new hardware like it did when I changed out my video card and ask me to configure it.  It didn't happen and the documentation said if I am using RedHat to refer to the RedHat documentation on how to install the NIC card and to use the Tulip driver.  Can you help me get this card installed and configured?

	I am assuming that you are using Redhat 6.1 because I couldn't get
it to work with the default install either. You can either download the
latest tulip.c from http://www.scyld.com/network/tulip.html or you can
recompile the latest kernel with support for the DEC Tulip chip in the
10/100 ethernet section. I also use these cards for all of my machines and
they have fixed this glitch with Redhat 6.2.
