You have to do this:

go to eepro100.c

find :

const char i82557_config_cmd[22] = 

change:
0xf2, 0x48,   0, 0x40, 0xf2, 0x80,              
to:
0xf2, 0x48,   0, 0x40, 0xfa, 0x80,     


find:
const char i82558_config_cmd[22] = {

change
0x68, 0, 0x40, 0xf2, 0xBD,              
to
0x68, 0, 0x40, 0xfa, 0xBD, 


generally if I am right this is the "init" of the card. changing 0xf2 to
0xfa enables receiving long frames.
