Definitely not compatible. And as noted in the previous email, I don't advise ifdown the NIC unless you can verify it will not corrupt the memory that was previously used for RX descriptors and RX buffers. OTOH, 100BT cards are *so* cheap, it should be possible to replace if it's not built-in on the motherboard. Sorry for the bad news and thanks for doing the extra tests. But still, I'm hopeing for two code changes as a result: 1) include CSR5 and CSR6 in the printk output 2) the date of the tulip driver revision needs to be updated (or dropped). thanks, grant - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
