I have tryed a number of 2.2.x kernel, and they are able to read the
correct MAC address from the NIC: debian 2.2r5, kernel 2.2.19, de4x5.c:
V0.544 mdk 8.0, kernel 2.2.19-10mdk
BitKeeper 2.2 Stable, kernel 2.2.21rc3, de4x5.c: V0.544

But it fails with:
ydl 2.1, kernel 2.4.10-12a, tulip driver 0.9.15-pre7
BenH Devel, kernel 2.4.19-pre6-ben0, tulip driver 0.9.15-pre10
mdk 8.2b2, 2.4.?

It looks like 2.2 and de4x5 works, I'v try to compile a 2.4.19 with no
tulip, to see what happens.
