[TriLUG] Old dilemma, IBM Etherjet cards

tulip.c is not a module, it's part of the source that needs to be compiled
to make a module. The instructions come with the source. I'm not familiar
with the diskettes; there may already be a precompiled tulip.o module
somewhere, but watch out for modversion dependencies...
