  Yeah, I saw a post about that, I'm using a more recent Linux one, but it
still doesn't work. The Tulip should work though.

  Which messages ? I don't get any error messages at all from the driver.
I'm already using the serial console, as well as the GDB support. Here's
the messages I get from OSKit. (minus my own debugging ones)

  tcpdump also shows it isn't transmitting anything at all. I get similar
stuff when using either the tulip and the vortex drivers.
