Any luck with the 815E issue ?

fxp1: <Intel Pro/100 Ethernet> port 0xc400-0xc43f mem 0xd5101000-0xd5101fff 
irq 15 at device 8.0 on pci1
fxp1: Ethernet address 00:01:80:07:1e:f4
inphy1: <i82562EM 10/100 media interface> on miibus1
inphy1:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

it takes about 3 seconds only to get

fxp1: SCB timeout
fxp1: SCB timeout
fxp1: device timeout

when connected to a 10baseT switch (Compaq in this case)

The other strange thing about this is that if I force it to 10baseT/UTP the 
problem is not quite as bad as when letting it detect it via autoselect. I 
still get the SCB timeouts, but the card seems to recover from them 
slightly faster.
