The e100 driver will be included in Winston. This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Winston Gold-release John, did the kernel we gave you fix this bug as well? Single Unit Failure -- flaky eeprom... Sorry. |
Using a Compaq NC3123 NIC installed in a PCI slot of a DeskPro EN/SFF. This NIC uses the Intel 82559 controller. It appears that the eepro100 driver cannot properly detect and configure the card, but the e100 driver can. When using the standard eepro100 driver: ================================= eth1: Invalid EEPROM checksum 0xff00, check settings before activating this device! eth1: OEM i82557/i82558 10/100 Ethernet, FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF, IRQ 10. Receiver lock-up bug exists -- enabling work-around. Board assembly ffffff-255, Physical connectors present: RJ45 BNC AUI MII Primary interface chip unknown-15 PHY #31. Secondary interface chip i82555. General self-test: passed. Serial sub-system self-test: passed. Internal registers self-test: passed. ROM checksum self-test: passed (0x04f4518b). ifconfig shows: ---------- eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 Interrupt:10 Base address:0xb000 When using the e100 driver (Intel wrote): ================================= e100 - Intel(R) 8255x-based Ethernet Copyright 2000 Intel Corp.
