Does NetBSD/i386 1.4.1 support the thinwire (10base2) port on DEC 
EtherWORKS DE205 combo netword cards (AUI+Thinwire+Twisted-pair)? 
If so, is there any special magic needed? 

I have several Digital Etherworks DE205 ISA combo 
(AUI/Twisted-Pair/Thinwire) network cards. All work normally under
Win32. NetBSD/i386 1.4.1 sees them and lets me set them up for AUI 
and twisted-pair. I get the following error when I try to set the 
thinwire port:

	# ifconfig lc0 media 10base2
	ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA: Device not configured

I get the same response for BNC and thinwire, connected or 
disconnected. Autoselect goes for the AUI (10base5) port. 
Hardstrapping the DE205 to the thinwire port does not help. Any 
suggestions besides buying a hub and running twisted-pair?

Many thanks!


PS - DE203/204/205 cards need to be set to port 0x320 
in order to be seen by the GENERIC kernel, contrary to 
what the install docs say.
