Hi!

I have the same problem as you have: I got a Etherpower 10/100 and it
doesn't work with BSD (I use the commercial version BSDI).
I searched on the internet and found out, that there are two versions of
this card. One has an older chipset and works with BSD, but the newer
ones
have a chipset called 9332BDT (see sticker on the back of the card). It
is
not supported by BSD by now. I found some patches on the BSDI server,
but
none of them worked.
I'm sorry, that I cannot give you a solution for the problem, but I
hope,
that it although helps you a little bit.
If you have found a way that works, it would be nice from you, to send
me
a description.

Greetings,
        Jan

PS: I'm sorry, but I do not have a possibility to post mails to the
newsgroups directly, because I'm still at configuring this system, and
can
only read news by now. Please forward this mail to the newsgroups, so
that
other people can also take advantage of it. THANX!
