Actually, Bill Paul told me that the dc driver should work with most 21140 and 21140A cards that use a miibus tranceiver. It's only when they run into the internal ethernet interface that there is likely to be trouble. I had a 21140AE card sitting in .au (which I now have) and will test the theory. 2104x cards (10 mbit only) are right out.
