1. ULi M5263 10/100M Ethernet Controller Core
============================================= 
You can use command
        /sbin/lspci -n 
    or
        cat /proc/pci | grep 5263
to determine whether ULi M5263 Ethernet controller exists in your 
system. If yes, simply follow the steps below to install the driver.

This driver is dedicated to support ULi M5263 10/100M Ethernet 
Controller under Linux platform.

Any improper use of this module, such as combining it with different 
hardware and/or software environment, may produce unpredicable results.
The author of the driver and its property owner do not have 
responsibility for any property lose or damage.


2. File Signature
====================
/driver/uli526x.c	           source codec c file

/sample/Makefile.in                sample makefile

3.Installation Guide
====================
To install the driver, you should reconfigure and recompile your Linux 
kernel as follows:

Make sure your kernel version number is 2.6.5-358.

Copy uli526x.c to /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-358/drivers/net/tulip/, and modify the
following file in this directory. (Make a backup of them.)

1.Kconfig.in
add the following lines to Config.in file.(refer to the Config.in file we provide to you)

config M526X
	tristate "ULi M526x controller support"
	depends on PCI
	select CRC32
	---help---
	  This driver is for ULi M5261/M5263 10/100M Ethernet Controller
	  (<http://www.uli.com.tw/>).

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here.

2.Makefile
add the following lines to Makefile.(refer to the Makefile we provide to you)

obj-$(CONFIG_M526X)	+= uli526x.o
------------------------------------
Install as a kernel module
------------------------------------

  Step 1: 
        Change directory to /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-358
        Use the command "make menuconfig" or "make xconfig", and make 
        sure "ULi M526x controller support" is set as module.
	
	Example:	
	Select "Device Drivers"
        Select "Networking support"
        Select "Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)"
	Select "Tulip family network device support"
        Select "ULi M526x controller support" as "m"

  Step 2:
        Select "Loadable module support", and unselect "Set version information
        on all module symbols"
	
	Before exit, save your configration.


  Step 3:
	make modules
	make modules_install

  Step 4:
         modprobe tulip	

 Then, you can bind any protocol into M5263 driver and use it.

------------------------------------------
Install as a part of linux kernel
------------------------------------------

  Step 1:
        Change directory to /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-358
        Use the command "make menuconfig" or "make xconfig", and make 
        sure "ULi M526x controller support" is set as kernel.
	
	Example:	
	Select "Device Drivers"
        Select "Networking support"
        Select "Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)"
	Select "Tulip family network device support"
        Select "ULi M526x controller support" as "y"
	

  Step 2:
        Select "Loadable module support", and unselect "Set version information
        on all module symbols"
	
	Before exit, save your configration.


  Step 3:
	make
	cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot

  Step 4:
	If you use grub to boot your linux, then
	  1) Modify the file /etc/grub.conf by adding
		title 2.6.5-358
		root (hd0,2)
		kernel /boot/bzImage ro root=/dev/hd1
		The disk partition where your linux resides in, 
                for example: /dev/hda1
	  2) Reboot and select the kernel 2.6.5-358 
  
 Then, you can bind any protocol into M5263 driver and use it.
