Since I can set the media to 10baseTX, I didn't worry about trying things. On the 3C509-TX, the only thing that works so far is commenting out the write to the PHY, which is the one of the changes that Lemon made for the Intel card. /* PHY_WRITE(sc, MII_NSPHY_PCR, reg); */ I deleted the or's to reg until only setting the led was left and then I backed it all out and commented the PHY_WRITE, which restored networking to the NIC. My system with a 3C509B-TX wasn't affected by the changes to mii/nsphy.c.
