There appear to be some settings in the 3c509 config program that prevent the ISA enumerator from recognizing cards in PnP mode. I'm unsure what they are at this point.

If you are going to use PnP mode, use ep1 for now. If you turn off PnP mode, you'll be able to use ep0. I hope to solve this when I get the 3c509/3c59x doc books. -- | Matthew N.
