What chip does the new board use?
If it uses the i82557, it should work with the new EEPro100B driver, which
you can find on cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov.
( When I talked to the Intel network card people they indicated that the
100mbps-capable i82557 costed less to produce than the older 10mbps chips,
and they would eventually use it for both 10 and 100mbps boards.)
