entropy -- it's not just a good idea, it's the second law.
>Environment:
i386 machine, Dell motherboard with integrated 3c905B-TX NIC
>Description:
	
On an i386 system with integrated 3c905B-TX NIC, as soon as the ex interface
is configured, the link light for this connection goes out on the hub.  The
NIC is non-functional and no combination of media options will reactivate it.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
Boot NetBSD and try to configure ex interface on 3C905B-TX integrated NIC.
>Fix:
	

The following patch gets this NIC working on my system.
