The difference between le and lnc is not that one is ISA and one is PCI, the lnc driver also supports ISA cards. The le driver was written to support DEC cards based on 2 chipsets, just one of which is lance based (I forget the other one). It should really have the lance stuff ripped out, and then get newbussed to support the other chipset. I might do that sometime since I have the cards, but I'm busy until the end of Oct. Paul.
