Description of problem:
Linksys LNE100TX v5.1 seems to be broken.  Tested in both 2.4.18-17.8.0 and
2.4.18-18.8.0.

These errors show up in dmesg when I attempt to use this card:

Comment 1 Warren Togami 2002-11-17 07:34:32 UTC
Bought two LNE100TX v5.1 cards.  Both cards exhibit the same behavior.  When
tested in another computer (Pentium III) it seemed to work, but many errors
would accumulate in the TX row of ifconfig when data is transmitted.


Comment 2 Warren Togami 2003-01-11 10:51:04 UTC
Re-tested in Phoebe.  Still very broken in several Athlon and Pentium3 computers.

Comment 3 Bugzilla owner 2004-09-30 15:40:12 UTC
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
