Netgear nics use the tulip module. Make sure it is either compiled into the kernel or compiled as a module

Subject: configuring a network interface....

I've been trying to establisih and enternet connection (under RH 7.1) using a DSL modem and a NetGear RT314 router (using DHCP).  However neither the 'netconfig' or 'conrol-panel' commands are seccusful. After using either command to configure an ethernet interface using DHCP on reboot i see something like "Bringing up eth0: Delaying Initalization of Eth0 [FAILED]" I also see the message "Delaying eth0 initialization" in the console window behind the conrol-panel network config applet.
 
I suspect that the NIC is not being reconized as output from '/sbin/lspci' yeilds:
00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Natioal Semiconductor Corporation: Unknown device 0020
 
I'm not sure of the manufactuer of my NIC. I believe it is also a NetGear.
 
What can I do to get this working?
 
Thanks,
        Jeremy
