   Does NetBSD 1.1 support the Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 PCI LAN Adapter?
   I don't see it listed.

No.

However, -1.2_ALPHA and _BETA support the ISA variant, and although no
such change can be doen for the forthcoming -1.2 release anymore, I'd
try to clean that stuff up, and add a PCI frontend, if you are willing
to provide me with the PCI equivalents to manufacturer and product id,
(whose official names I've forgotten) and to pre-alpha test it.
