 Hi again,
 
 I've located some additional problems in NetBSD 4.0 with this interface.
 The media-selection does not work correctly.
 Autonegotiation will only succed some times ..
 Setting the mediatype vie "ifconfig xxx media yyyy" will not set the 
 requested media type in all cases.
 UTP seems to work correctly, e.g. 100baseTX-FDX will lead to 100 Mbit 
 HDX links.
 Sometimes setting the media type will end up with an error. After reboot 
 the same mediatype can be set ...
