Hi,
  The tulip driver doesn't initialise with the 2.4.0-test6 kernel
(for me, anyway).
The problem is that pci_resource_start (pdev, 0) in tulip_core.c
line 1046, returns 0x0001ff00, where it should (I think) return
0x0000ff00.  I added a printk in drivers/pci/pci.c to show the
start/end values as it filled in the pci_dev->resource table,
and that showed start 0x0000ff00 end 0x0000ff7e.  Don't know
where bit 16 gets added to start..

I just commented out the 'goto err_out_free_netdev' in tulip_core.c
and it now claims to mount nfs root, but cannot find init.
I had to comment out the unregistering of pdc console to
see that.

In 2.3.99pre8 tulip announced that the chip was at 0x1ff00 also,
but it didn't matter because the request_region call was different.

My 53c720 driver doesn't work any more either :-(
