While I was struggling with the MX card, I heard about FreeBSD's
drivers for it.  They have been developed by Bill Paul.

They are rewritten as if_mx.c and if_mxreg.h, not patch to if_de.c.

So, probably we would be happier to port the driver
than patching the de driver.

Someone interested in porting them?
