I largely agree. The only problem I have with these later cards and the
3c59x driver is that the published module parameters do not work. This
means that, as I have to deal with switches set (not through my choice)
not to autonegotiate, I can only get them to the right settings using
mii-tool. But apart from that they do appear to work fine.
