I think that there is a bug in that driver. In the pci attach routine
there is an out instruction that tries to reset the card but does an
out at the wrong absolute address; just remove it.

I know because I borrowed the knowledge from the driver to port it
to NetBSD...

FYI, there is no reason for that driver to be separate from the
ep (3c509) driver; they are 99.9% identical.
