SMC etherpower II 9432BTX ethernet card

[rob <rob001@iname.com>]

 Hello !
 I have problems with the card mentioned above. The driver for SMC
 etherpower II cards (epic100) does not work. Please someone
 tell me if there is a LINUX driver for it or not. I took a look at the
web page
http://www.smc.com/ftpdocs/nics.html#nics/latest
and I think that this chipset is a brand new one.
Here is some information about the state of  the system.

dmesg|grep eth0

eth0: SMC EPIC/100 (chip ID 0005) at 0x1000, IRQ 11, 00:e0:29:30:d6:e4.
eth0: MII transceiver #3 control 3000 status 7809.
eth0:  Autonegotiation advertising 01e1 link partner 0001.
