1.09r is now rock-steady.

I've downloaded eepro100.c,1.09r and related PCI support files for uses
with my Linux 2.3.17 kernel last Friday.
It has withstood the traffic characteristic test in 5-minute interval of
the following tests (I'm banging our ADSL modems but I've got
back-to-back PCs having same card/drivers throughput testing as well):
1. Large packet burst (100 packets 5 second-interval)
2. Large packet (1472-byte) high-throughput
3. Small packet (64-byte) burst (400 packets 5 second-interval)
4. Small packet high-throughput
This is over 10BaseT-Half Duplex. I've just started
100Base-T-FullDuplex today.
This test has been continuously ongoing since Friday evening without a
single incident of ANYTHING. In other word, it is flawless.
I recommend you download this driver particularily if you are using
1.09l or later.
