I've attached the output below. Please note that I use -t 4, since
tulip-diag didn't find anything recognizable in /proc/pci.

Now, that's interesting.

But tulip.c supports both chips, right? So shouldn't things just work
even if cardmgr is confused, as long as it modprobes the correct
driver?

cardctl ident says:

  Socket 1:
    product info: "D-Link", "DFE-680TXD", "V1.0", ""
    manfid: 0x13d1, 0xab02
    function: 6 (network)
    PCI id: 0x1186, 0x1541

>   PCI ID: Use 'lspci ....'  and/or 'cat /proc/pci'

Neither is very forthcoming;

lspci says:

  pcilib: Cannot open /proc/bus/pci/05/00.0
  lspci: Unable to read 64 bytes of configuration space.

and in /proc/pci the card turns up as just:

  Bus  5, device   0, function  0:
    Ethernet controller:  (rev 17).
      IRQ 10.
      Master Capable.  Latency=64.  Min Gnt=255.Max Lat=255.

By the way; cardmgr puts the following into its stab file:

  Socket 1: Linksys EtherFast PCMPC200 v2
  1       network tulip_cb        0       eth0

There seems to be conflicting opinions as to whether the card is a
D-Link card, a Linksys card or simply an unknown card...
