I had been running 1.5ZC from May 11 on my Powermac G4 dual proc with
the gem and brgphy drivers:

gem0 at pci3 dev 15 function 0: Apple Computer GMAC Ethernet (rev. 0x01)
gem0: interrupting at irq 41
gem0: Ethernet address 00:30:65:c6:c8:6c, 10KB RX fifo, 4KB TX fifo
brgphy0 at gem0 phy 0: BCM5400 1000BASE-T media interface, rev. 7
brgphy0: 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-FDX, auto

and all was working great... I just upgraded to 1.6_BETA3 from June
23, and now the media autodetect doesn't seem to work anymore...
ifconfig gem0 reports "media: autoselect (none)". However, if I
manually configure the media (ifconfig gem0 media 100basetx), it'll
work. The ethernet cable's plugged into a cheapo 100basetx switch,
btw... it normally autodetects 100basetx full-duplex.

Anyone else having problems with the gem driver?
