Hi, I've been using e100 for years with no problem, however more by=20 curiosity than necessity I'd like to know how will be handled the=20 devices which are (supposedly) supported by eepro100 and not by e100? According to "modinfo eepro100" and "modinfo e100" those devices IDs ar= e=20 only matched by eepro100: +alias: pci:v00008086d00001035sv +alias: pci:v00008086d00001036sv +alias: pci:v00008086d00001037sv +alias: pci:v00008086d00001227sv +alias: pci:v00008086d00005200sv +alias: pci:v00008086d00005201sv Are they matched by some joker rule that I haven't noticed in e100, or=20 is support for them really going to disappear? See you, Eric
