Subject: 3com390 card -- Warning: Early Revision Adapter.  What does this error mean?
Message-ID: <Pine.BSF.3.91.960119131548.24316A-100000@technix.org>

Here's the message from my dmesg output:

vga0 <VGA-compatible display device> rev 0 on pci0:10
vx0 <3Com 3c590 EtherLink III PCI> rev 0 int a irq 10 on pci0:11
utp[*UTP*] address 00:20:af:f6:03:9a
Warning! Defective early revision adapter!
chip2 <DEC 21050 PCI-PCI bridge> rev 2 on pci0:12

What does it mean when it says Warning!  Defective early revision adapter!
Does this refer to my 3c590 card?  Ive called 3com and they said no updates
were ever made on the 3c590...
