>From Xen, we currently don't have any way of accessing the mii
interface - we rely on the Ethernet card driver's media
autodetect routine to do the right thing.  We've yet to come
across a need for any of these routines, but they could be
implemented if required -- I suspect the 3189 driver can be made
to work without them.

Best,
