If these are 3c509B's, they should work in PnP mode.  One card
certainly does work.  The trick is, you have to remove the non-PNP isa
entry from your kernel config first, because doing the ISA scan for
3c509s messes up the PnP configuration state.

The ep manual page should describe this -- oops, it doesnt :(.
