Hi Ronald,

Could you try setting sysctl hw.xe.debug=1 and post the output?  Also, are
you using OLDCARD or NEWCARD?  A full dmesg might be useful too...
I suspect there's a problem with the driver not knowing all the card IDs
that Xircom ever used, as well as probing some cards differently when run
under NEWCARD vs. OLDCARD. 

Cheers,

	Scott
