There are two that I've found which will work in the LC/PDS slot under
NetBSD. They are:
The "Apple LC Twisted-pair" part number 830-0891 which uses the Sonic
DP83934BVUL chip, and the "Asante MacCon III+" which uses the ST-NIC
DP83902AV chip.
Two that don't work for NetBSD are:
The Dayna part number m0437z/b which uses the Sonic DP83934AVQB chip and
the NewerTech LC10 which uses some proprietary chip.
