I'm not so sure it is. I don't get it with v0.99E of the driver, but I do
with 0.99F. Does anyone actually know that the new PCI stuff in 0.99F is
not what is causing the problems?

Verion 0.99F of the driver (the one in 2.1.120) seems to be totally
screwed. Go back to the 3c59x.c from 2.1.119 (0.99E) and forget about it
until some nice clever person fixes it :)
