Hi Scott

Do this:

rmmod tulip
cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/
tail -10 tulip.c

This will show you how to compile your tulip module for SMP. Do so, on my
system it is

gcc -D__SMP__ -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c
tulip.c `[ -f /usr/include/linux/modversions.h ] && echo -DMODVERSIONS`"

then visit scyld.com for how to install that module (I can't remeber hwo
to offhand). Then, 

insmod tulip

Please note I have never doen this for SMP, but the same principles apply
for adding modules, so this shoudk work. As always, ymmv.
