Thanks for the reply. So, I'm not entirely sure what I should do with this information! Should I be able to find the tulip driver listed in modconf then? If so, that confuses me a little since the 3c59x driver is in modconf too, but fails to load.
If I shouldn't use modconf to use the tulip driver what should I use?
Thanks again for the help, Andrew.

"grep -rsi 82c168 *" in the 2.4.18 source tree suggests you should try the tulip driver:
drivers/net/tulip/tulip_core.c: /* LC82C168 */
drivers/net/tulip/tulip_core.c: { "Lite-On 82c168 PNIC", 256, 0x0001fbef,
