gem0 at pci3 dev 15 function 0: Apple Computer GMAC Ethernet (rev. 0x01)

>Description:
	I'm using the gem driver on my PowerMac G4 Dual Processor 
500MHz, and the Ethernet media detection doesn't seem to work anymore. 
If I leave the media type at the default of "autoselect", ifconfig gem0 
says "media: Ethernet autoselect (none)" and the network doesn't work. 
If I manually set the media type with "ifconfig gem0 media 100basetx 
mediaopt full-duplex", it starts to work. It does keep working if I 
then set it back to "media autoselect".
	It's plugged in to a 10/100 switch, btw.

	The previous kernel I was using, 1.5ZC from May 11, works 
fine...
