Donald,

     I am getting the following error when using an IBM (actually Intel) 10/100
EtherJet PCI Management adapter with the eepro100 linux driver.  Do you know of
any updated drivers for the 82559 chips?  The card actually operates, but the
mac address is being misread and is showing up as the same value for every card
in the system, and in others that use the same card.

Thanks,
     Kelly O'Brien
