Thanks Harald (and Mike), I think I'll do that. It would help in my
application alot.

Nope, our own board. It was a J-lead sram, and the solder had wicked up the
lead, but it wasn't making contact. Confused me for awhile.

Then I had a problem with the Reset on the Ethernet chip. I didn't use a
seperate Reset generator, and had driven the 8019's reset pin from the
Atmels, silly me. I should have known I couldn't make the Atmel's Reset line
an output ;-)

As for using the Rev 1.3 schematics, I did change the addressing on the
8019: I only added in A4 to A0, and A15 as the decoder. Saved some pins, and
worked fine.

Cheers, and thanks for the help!
