I've mailed Linus and others about this before, but I get no response. There are two issues that confuse things, apparently.
First, the multicast fix (code after "Now add this frame") seems to make the auto media detect code get invoked all over again and causes things to be broken.
Second, v2.1.8 and later seem to have troubles (at least on my UDB)- but this isn't directly related to the tulip driver- this happens even with the de4x5 driver on.
I have a patch against the 2.0.24/2.1.7 tulip driver that fixes some issues (mostly for correctly supporting the PCI stuff for the Znyx ether arrays and some of the SMC card support), but I've had to do the gross thing about taking the multicast patch and enclosing it within #ifndef __alpha__. I will look at solving this when I have time.
I recommend you try this commenting out as well. If anyone else knows what gives, enlighten us.
