EtherExpress 16TP LEDS

  INTEL EtherExpress(tm) 16 FAMILY OF NETWORK ADAPTERS
  ====================================================

  The LEDs on earlier versions of the EtherExpress 16TP adapters were
  vertical.  The LEDs on the current versions are horizontal.  With 
  this change in orientation some functions also changed:

  - On the earlier versions of the EtherExpress 16TP adapters, the Link
    light would blink as soon as you connected the cable to
    the RJ-45 port.  Most of the newer boards work the same way, but if
    the LED does not start blinking when you connect the cable, LOAD
    THE DRIVER.  There was one version of the board that required
    the driver be loaded before the Link light would work.  This also
    applies to the EtherExpress 16C and FlashC.

  - The newer boards (with the horizontal LEDs including the EtherExpress
    16TP, 16C, FLASHC, and MCA/TP) can detect if the polarity of the RX
    and TX lines is reversed and compensate.
      
  - The TX/RX LED on the earlier versions of the EtherExpress 16TP
    doubled as a POWER light.  The newer boards do not have this
    feature.
