Hey There!

I have recently recieved new SMC 10/100 cards that contain the DEC 21140-AC
chips instead of the DEC 21140-AB chips.  They are reconized by FreeBSD but
do NOT correctly configure, and therefore do not transport any data.

I am currently running 2.1.5 but I have tried the 2.2 boot-flp and the
driver on there does not work either.

Does anyone have any suggestions or fixes for this.  I am running short on
AB chips and need to use the cards.

Thanx
