The problem seems to be generic. It is always related to media selection and occurs with at least 3 different NICs which are based on the 21040 and 21041 chips.

I have not got lspci but since the driver reports the correct IRQ and IO-ports that should be no issue. (I'll install lspci if necessary).
Outputs of dmesg, tulip-diag, and some other info is now at: <http://www.logi.cc/tulip/>
