This is the Tulip driver, not the eepro100 driver.
The Intel "version II" card is based on the i82559 and uses the
eepro100  driver.   (Yes, it's confusing.)

You should post this to the tulip list.  See
   http://www.scyld.com/network/tulip.html

You should include the actual status, since the report above is almost
useless.  The 'tulip-diag -af' output would also be useful, and may just
directly tell you the problem.  (IRQ blocked, bus parity error, etc.)
