A KNE100TX can show up as a deN, pnN, or dcN depending on the board
and the revision of the OS.

pn was the driver for the PNIC variant of the tulip workalike chips
(e.g. the 82c168 and 82c169).  Some of the newer KNE100TX boards are
based on those workalike chips and do not contain real (DEC) tulip
chips (i.e. the 21x4x).

The pn driver existed in 3.1-RELEASE, and was replaced by the dc
driver in 4.0-RELEASE.  de has been around for a while (Oct. '94).
