Yeah, I just checked. eepro100 supports device ID's
0x1035,0x1036,0x1037,0x1227,0x5200, and 0x5201
Other than that, it's a limited subset of various e100 IDs.

AFAIK yes.

I have a vague recollection that we disabled this a while ago, and
had to reenable it when users of the IDs above complained their NICs
didn't work any more.

I don't recall trying adding those ID's to e100.c and seeing whether
they work or not though.  Jeff ?
