[9fans] Netgear FA311TX (NS DP83815) ether

[forsyth]

if anyone has got one of these cards, i've got
a driver i'm now testing.  let me know if you've got a card and would
like to try it.  i've only tested on a 10/100 Netgear hub
and (later today) on a 10/100 Netgear switch.
since it's an all-in-one chip, it might work with other
NS83815 cards with minor changes.

Oh, dude, you're kidding.  I just wrote a driver for the SiS900
Ethernet chip, which (if the BSD driver is any indication) is mostly
compatable with the NS83815.  My understanding is that the 83815 is
a rebranded SiS900 with some small differences.

You aren't by chance working on a SiS530 graphics dirver, are you?
I am now working on the mostly compatable SiS5597.  ;-)
