	That's what they said about the soundchip on the board too. And
that took quite a long time to figure the problem out :P

	I must admit, i'm boggled by the eepro100-diag's outputs and
options available. What are the flags i should use to see the device's
status ? Should I use eepro100-diag when the device is active ? or should
i down the device then run eepro100-diag ?
