Mine comes up initially with a media of Autoselect 10/100 (something like
that), after several minutes it sets status to
"no carrier", and then finally sets media to: "Ethernet autoselect
(100baseTX <full-duplex>)" and status: "active".

I then try to run dhclient on it, and it just hangs forever. DHCP works
under Linux / Windows for this so I'm not sure what to do. The driver
hasn't worked since I've tried the version in CVS, for whatever reason the
version you sent to me before committing worked.

I should clarify that this is an integrated Gigabit Ethernet Controller as
this is a Gigabyte K8NPro NForce 3 Pro 150 Chipset motherboard.
