SMC EtherPower 10/100 dual NIC

I'm trying to install the above mentioned card into a Mandrake 9.1 system, running kernel 2.4.21-0.27mdk. I could swear that I have used this card in another system before, but it's not working this time around. I'm using the tulip driver for this card, though it appears to be referencing kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk. Am I in need of an updared tulip driver here, or should I be looking elsewhere for the solution?

This one will work with the Digital 21140 chipset, then?

The previous link was for a different chipset in the SMC etherpower card.

So the tulip is indeed the correct driver. Good. I'm not really losing my mind yet. Or maybe it's just too late...
