Subject:   FreeBSD Support of PCnet-FAST Ethernet Controllers?

I have an IBM PC Server 325, and it has an onboard 10/100MBps controller.
FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE recognizes it as a PCnet-FAST Controller:

lnc1: <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> rev 0x25 int a irq 11 on pci1.5.0
lnc1: PCnet-FAST address 00:60:94:57:3b:a2    

Unfortunately, I am having problems with the driver. In the kernel
configuration file I wrote, I must use a 'device lnc0 at isa?' which
usually isn't nessecary. Also, functions like addmulti(), which I need for
AppleTalk do not work. I also get tremendous amounts of errors while doing
SMB Transfers:

lnc1: Transmit late collision  -- Net error? 

Are there any updated drivers in -CURRENT? I would love not having to
stick a second Ethernet controller in there.

Thanks,
Sean-Paul Rees
