This one froze up after a few seconds on a p430 Phobos 4-port NIC.
(60Mbps on one port, 10Mbps on the others)

However, becker's driver hangs as well, and the 4x5 driver doesn't
even get started...

The driver in 2.4.20-pre9 works pretty good...but I seem to get
rx lockups from time to time...  Still trying to figure out how
to work around that problem...

I'll donate a NIC to a driver hacker if they think that will help
them fix the problem.

Thanks,
Ben
