The MAC-PCI_LD is a slightly modified Tulip driver for the 21143 Ethernet LAN controller. To achieve full compliance with the MAC-PCI IP core, two functions were added to the original Tulip driver: a new VID/PID and a special MAC address reading routine. As the Tulip driver is present in  almost all Linux distributions, it has been extensively tested in  a variety of applications.The driver supports all 10/100 Mbps data rates and full or half duplex transmission modes.
