Soren,
AFAIK the ep driver does not interact with PnP, does it? Those cards do have
two different methods for detecting the parameters, one of which is PnP.
If the driver hasn't changed much in the last two-three months is doesn't know
about PnP at all. PnP-like config entries used to work via the old 3Com-
specific configuration mechanism.
I do have an updated/changed driver that uses Pnp to configure the card but I
am not able to work on it until mid next week. Also it exposes problems 
which I believe are in my changes or side-effects from the apparent buggyness
of the original driver.
If you're interested I can send you the source code for the driver but it is
not clear if it works on -current at the moment as I haven't updated for
some time.

Timo
