Well I am still curious why the 3c59x driver has such slow polling when other drivers I have been testing are able to report almost instantly when I remove a network cable. Could it be that other network chips generate an interrupt on cable removal and the 3com chips do not?
Yes, at least some of the supported chips do not generate an interrupt on cable removal, so we have to check for this with a timer.
