I have examined the AMD LANCE chips in each of the three 3/60's that I own.
Here's what I have:

ticking.clock.org AMD 7990PC/70  8733DP (c) 1985

chronos.clock.org AMD 7990PC/70  8804FP (c) 1985

quartz.clock.org AMD 7990PC  824BPCE (c) 1987

Which revisions are these chips (i.e. do I have the bug)? Ideally, if one
or more of these do not have the problem, I'd like to shut off that bug
handling code in the kernel for those machine(s).

thanks,

Erik Fair
