Well, I finally realized that CNet Technologies Pro200 card has a driver
that comes with the Linux kernel, which is not Tulip. Actually, I found it
indirectly, by seeing that a GPLed C module name dmtf.c or something was
included in CNet's drivers package, and afterwards seeing that there was
already such a module under /lib/modules.
In any case, after eth0 was showing in "ifconfig -a" I followed the
instructions in the ADSL-Bezeq HOWTO And it was relatively
straightforward to get the Internet connectivity. I managed to download
GIMP 1.3.x throught its CVS, and downloaded something from iglu.org.il at
170 KB/sec, so you could say it works pretty well.
What I couldn't do is make the bash script that raises the ADSL connection
an SUID-Root one, but that is a different problem.
In any case, I'd like to thank Daniel Arbel and Mulix, and the other guys
who wrote ADSL-Bezeq HOWTO for giving this useful information.

Shlomi Fish

A more experienced programmer does not make less bugs. He just realizes
what went wrong more quickly.
