Thanks,
I got impatient and did the upgrade. Looks about the same from here.
Haven't actually tried the interface yet as the machine will be dual
homed and needs a bunch of other setup first. Thanks for the help.

 Hi Scott,
 I've got NetBSD_1.5BETA running on a machine with a PC-Chips motherboard.
 DM9102 seems to work okay (at least at 10Mb/s)
 part of kernel messages output:
 tlp0 at pci0 dev 11 function 0: Davicom DM9102 Ethernet, pass 1.0
 tlp0: broken MicroWire interface detected; setting SROM size to 1Kb
 tlp0: interrupting at irq 10
 dmphy0 at tlp0 phy 1: DM9101 10/100 media interface, rev. 0
 best wishes,
