That sounds like a bug right there... need all the addresses set up before we turn on stuff.


The description of the CPlusCmd in the 8169 datasheet includes a small note
which suggests that this register should be set up early.

It does not cost much to try and see if it makes a difference for DAC though.

Let me know what happens :)
