Hi, I've been using e100 for years with no problem, however more by 
curiosity than necessity I'd like to know how will be handled the 
devices which are (supposedly) supported by eepro100 and not by e100?

According to "modinfo eepro100" and "modinfo e100" those devices IDs are 
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 
is support for them really going to disappear?

See you,
Eric

These are phoneline (RJ-11) adapters, I doubt it would work with e100
This was the pro/100 intelligent server adapter with a pro/100 behind
a 960.  There aren't too many of these out there, and they usually
require some special configuration (although they can work as a dumb

I think support for these devices can disappear (as I don't think they
will work anyway) but if someone complains we can take into account
what eepro100 did to support it (if anything) and enable it in e100.

I'm sorry to disturb the schedule, but I'm not sure right now if this
pending issue of the e100 was meanwhile solved or declared a non-issue:

Auke, can you confirm that it makes sense to re-test? IIRC, our private
thread ended without resolution after I discovered that the chip
revision makes the difference for me. Looked like it is either handled
incorrectly by e100 or screwed up on that board.
