Both things are quite new, and I seem to have an older NetBSD.
I forgot how fast this updating of CURRENT goes, but I upgraded when I first started coding (that's a while back of course) so it's not /that/ old.
I'll upgrade the kernel (matter of fact, I'm downloading it now!) and also my own code so it uses the ether_ioctl & IFQ_SET_READY.

I found the cause of all my trouble: I forgot to include "opt_inet.h". Call me stupid, please do :)
When I looked at the latest tulip.c (as suggest by you), I noticed how old my version actually is. The opt_* includes aren't even used anymore by tulip.c...

I couldn't find in any documentation on netbsd.org about how to contribute source to NetBSD. What should I do once I've finished my driver?
I still have some problems (the card won't send anything, receiving isn't a problem, though), so it'll still take a while before I'm at a 'release point'. :)
