Don't know if this is a similar problem or not, but I'm been getting very strange behavior with the tulip driver when typing in a telnet session.. (I am doing this right now actually)
I'll get like half second, to second delays after I type a character and when it actually appears on the screen. I used to use a ne2k card, and never saw this behavior, so I'm pretty sure it's a driver problem...
I can try the 2.3.48 kernel to see if it exhibits the same problem...
