It appears from Donald Becker's Linux tulip driver that supports this card, the ethernet chipset in the new NetGear card is made by Lite-On. Lite-on's web page barely mentions that they make networking equipment, and they have no technical information. I can follow the changes in the Linux driver, but mapping that to FreeBSD's if_de.c would require (for someone like me that does not know the intricate details of the DEC 21x4x family) technical documentation. --mark.
