^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Arghhh... it appears as if they have made yet another change to the SMC
cards that is causing us greif. From the above message your card is
being identified as a Generic DC21140A card, probably assuming the
old phy interface which is causing you greif.

Hummm.... this looks like a new OUI for SMC, you might try the
following quick hack to if_de.c to see if it makes the card
work. If it does I'll create a more appropriate patch...
