Bug Description

Hello!

I recently dist-upgraded to Dapper and found that the module "xircom_tulip_cb"
is not available in the actual repository-kernel 2.6.15-8-686 (it was in
2.6.12). The module xircom_cb is available, but the tulip-one gives me greater
throughput (up to 8MB/sec), while xircom_cb gives at most around 300kB/sec.
So, could it be included again? Or, some tweaks to make the other one faster?

I have a xircom R2BE-100 cardbus adapter, output of lspci (reduced to ethernet line)

0000:06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Xircom Cardbus Ethernet 10/100 (rev 03)

Many thanks!
Norbert

sorry, had to select "linux-image-k7" as a component, it did not take ...-686 or
