First of all why get another .c file, ?? 2.2.5-15 supplied with redhat-6.0
should suit your needs.
What brings you to the conclustion that you kernel does not support your card.?
Another thing is if there is a problem with compiling then there would have
been a message from the compiler saying at which line the exception occured,
further more line 21 of tulip.c gives the $version number, in kernel 2.2.5 its
tulip.c:v0.89H 5/23/98
kernel 2.2.14pre11 is;
tulip.c:v0.91g-ppc
Now quite possably you are using "gcc" on when the new file was compiled with a
different compiler.
gcc --version tells the version number.
Please say what you want to do and maybe we can help, there should be no need
to get a new tulip.c and try to recompile it, that is by no means a trivial
task for some one who has no or little expiriance.
