Description Bastien Nocera 2005-02-22 17:46:36 UTC

$ ethtool -d eth0
Cannot dump registers: Success

When using ethtool2, the dump info appears properly.
PCI IDs of the card is "8086:1075", the pretty name is "Intel Corp.
82547GI Gigabit Ethernet Controller", and the card works correctly
with the current drivers.

I've seen this same error using "ethtool -d" with an adapter using the Intel
82571EB chip (PCI ID 8086:105E).  The e1000 driver installed is v7.1.9, and
ethtool is v1.8.  An adapter with the Intel 82546GB chip works fine with
"ethtool -d".
