Hi,

I've added the relevant "ifconfig $1 up" to testmii in the
next-to-be-released whereami, but some testing suggests that this might
screw up other network cards that are currently working :-(

Do you think this problem is specific to the Sun Gem NIC?  I could
perhaps detect this type of NIC specifically and only do the ifconfig up
if necessary?

No, I also need the ifconfig up on my laptop, with a "Broadcom 4400 10/100BaseT Ethernet" card.

The question is, which group should be listed? Those that need the ifconfig up, or those that can't bear it? Or could the bug be tracked to individual card drivers?
