Hi Stefan,

I've got a VxWorks driver binary that explicitly looks for device ID 
0x1030 (which is admittedly not ideal). It seems like the "82559 
InBusiness 10/100" hardware uses this, though I've had trouble finding 
an official source. The following documents reference that ID:

https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/8086/1030
http://ks.pams.ncsu.edu/pub/ncsuscyld/i386/misc/src/trees/hdstg2/modules/pcitable
https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/E100.html

And I found a similar post on a different mailing list that might shed 
some light:
http://www.beowulf.org/pipermail/eepro100/2000-January/000760.html

It looks like the 8255x series of devices have a number of potential 
IDs; maybe a property to set a specific PCI device ID would work?

Thanks,
Mike
