Here is some context for those who have been added to the CC list:
http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_frm/thread/bdc8fd08fb601c26

As far as I understand, some consider the eepro100 driver to be 
obsolete, and it has been considered for removal.

What is the current status?

Unfortunately, e100 does not work out-of-the-box on this system.

Is there something I can do to improve the situation?
