Although they function the same, Intel have recently started giving new
PCI Device IDs to the 82557s connected to (or embedded in) their 'hub'
chipsets. You may have to alter the detection code in the driver (and 9load)
to recognise them:

	i82557pci(void)
	{
		int port;
		Pcidev *p;
		Ctlr *ctlr;

		p = nil;
		while(p = pcimatch(p, 0x8086, 0)){
			switch(p->did){
			default:
				continue;
			case 0x1209:		/* Intel 82559ER */
			case 0x1229:		/* Intel 8255[789] */
			case 0x1031:		/* Intel 82562EM */
			case 0x2449:		/* Intel 82562ET */
				break;
			}
			...
