Sorry for the extra email; I should add (to save you digging through
the archives) that this is a
bfe0@pci2:0:0:  class=3D0x020000 card=3D0x81271028 chip=3D0x440114e4 rev=3D=
0x01 hdr=3D0x00
    vendor   =3D 'Broadcom Corporation'
    device   =3D 'BCM4401 10/100 Integrated Ethernet Controller'
    class    =3D network
    subclass =3D ethernet

If I find time, I may try (e.g.) 127, 512 for these values later today.
