  Tonight I tested both 3c595-T4 and 3c905-T4 cards with my 100base-T4 hub, 
using the 3c59x.c driver in Debian potato/stable.  The cards had no 
real difficulty.  There were a couple of mysterious messages like 
"neighbor table overflow" on my first ping attempts, but no problems 
thereafter.  One 3c595-T4 card always had a solid amber light rather than 
the normal green 100 link light, but it functioned just fine nevertheless.
