Using the 0.99G driver, I'm having some major problems with one of these
cards.  I've tried both pcmcia-cs 3.0.5 and a 3.0.6 snapshot -- the
snapshot driver is 0.99g.  

What seems to be happening is that the performance is extremely bad --
ifconfig declares that there are overruns, and tx timeouts are extremely
common.  I get a couple hundred packets cleanly, then performance goes
to hell, and eventually, nothing gets through at all.

Also, I'm getting another error when I do a cardctl eject 0 --

kernel: vortex_detach(eth0)
kernel: kfree of non-kmalloced memory:  07155020, next= 07079000 order=6

Thanks.
