I'm running a RealTek ethernet card in a 486dx4-100 machine and am having some 
problems. Firstly, doing an ls on a nfs mounted directory exported from the 
RealTek machine hangs. According to tcpdump it is receiving the readdir 
packets. Secondly, it will hange solidly when acting as the receiver (haven't 
tried it as the sender) running the netpipe tests (NPtcp -s -r receiving, the 
sender runs NP -t -h host_rl -s) - no DDB, just a solid hang. An ISA SMC card 
in the same machine is fine. I've tried it with RL_USEIOSPACE defined and 
undefined. This is running a very current system, with the id string

"People often think of research as a form of development -- that it's about
doing exactly what you planned, doing it on time, and doing it with resources
that you said you'd use.  But if you're going to do that, you have to know what
you are doing, and if you know what you are doing, it isn't really research."
