The standard 'tulip' driver is the 'new' one. Use 'oldtulip' for the old one.

  Who spent a about two days on separate weekends getting this to work, 
during which time the new SCSI drive had to wait because the old kernel didn't 
have a driver for the adapter, and a workstation on the network had 
a disk failure losing the information waiting to go on to the new SCSI 
disk... fsc*ing obscure changes! Aghhhhh! ;(
