That's just the info I needed.

I put v2.05 of the eepro100-diag.c program at
     ftp://www.scyld.com/pub/diag/eepro100-diag.c
This version should
  report the EEPROM sleep mode bit
  update the EEPROM to remove the sleep bit with the -Gww flag.


Now for another problem: I believe that several recent problems have
been a result of the 559 swallowing what it thinks are management
packets, but that we wanted to e.g. complete an MPI message.  Is there
any way to turn off the management "feature"?
