OK my testing...

i put an ana-6944a/tx and she work fine with 100MB 4 ports ok with
DEC-21140.

Two ana-6944a/tx works fine with tulip-0.91... 

An older single card with DEC-21140 work fine.....

i put an ana-6911a/tx with DEC-21143 and the light gos on, driver
loading on boot. The light go,s out when i make an ifconfig. The other
side is the same card with an HUP to connected and work on other
maschines fine with an other System (not Linux). 

the same effect is when i put three cards (one ana-6944a/tx, one
ana.6911a/tx and one ana-6910?[fiber]) 

allways the same problem with the ana-6911a/tx

I thing is an Problem with the MII device on the Card.... 
I have test many parameters in  /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/CONFIG, 

I have test it with tulip-diag, an cant set the card wit the parameters
for MII device.

I can send any output from tulip-diag on Monday, the cards is on
workplace
