Subject:   SMC8041TX PCMCIA ethernet stalls

I am trying to get a SMC EZ Card 10/100 Mbps PC Card [SMC8041TX], to
work with FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE and have had limited success.  The device
gets created, and I can access things over it, but on sustained
connections (eg. dowloading packages) it stalls.  My /etc/pccard.conf is:

# SMC EZ Card 10/100 Mbps PC Card
card "SMC" "8041TX-10/100-PC-Card"
          config  auto "ed" ? 0x80000
          insert  /etc/pccard_ether $device start
          remove  /etc/pccard_ehter $device stop

I have tried it both with and without the 0x80000, all the other 10/100
ethernet devices in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf have it, although I do not
know what it does.

I am running a 100mhz 486DX4 with 8 megabytes of ram.

Does anybody have any idea why it is doing this?
