According to the source (if_wx.c), it's for the Intel 82452 chip. The
PRO/1000 (F&T) uses the 82543GC. I have a PRO/1000 F and it's not
being detected by FreeBSD-RELEASE 4.1.1. Also have some form of
PRO/100 and that works fine (used by fxp driver).
Hopefully soon these PRO/1000's will work... hoping it's a case where
I forgot something simple.
