Thats because there aren't enough people that actually USE legacy hardware
working to support the drivers.

I'm aware of a few outstanding 3c509 problems but until I get my test
systems up and running there isn't a whole lot I can do about them.  The
variety of 3c509s out there and the annoying little bugs they exhibit
doesn't make it easy to track down each weird problem a user experiences.

You've had 5 years to get yourself up to speed; why haven't I seen any
patches from you lately?
