>Description:
	I have a 3Com 3c905 PCI 10/100 card with a single UTP port.  If I
	do not give a media type then ifconfig works but, even though the
	hardware indicates 10BaseT, the driver is set for 100baseTX.  If
	I put media type 10BaseT/UTP it says "Device not configured."
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	Install said card and enter the following line:
		ifconfig <ip address> <netmask> media 10BaseT/UTP"
>Fix:
	Needs some sort of ifmedia_change function in the driver
