Hi,
I have a dual-ethernet DECchip 21142/43 based card in my system. The problem is, that the device doesn't work after a cold boot.
After I have powered up my system, the syslog shows the following message and the device doesn't work.
-----------------------------schnipp------------------------------------ Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002) ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:04.0[A] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 tulip0: EEPROM default media type Autosense. tulip0: Index #0 - Media MII (#11) described by a 21142 MII PHY (3) block. tulip0: ***WARNING***: No MII transceiver found! eth0: Digital DS21143 Tulip rev 33 at 0xe280ff80, 00:00:D1:1B:EF:2E, IRQ 11.

A simple shutdown and warm boot gives the desired result:
-----------------------------schnipp------------------------------------ Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002) ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:04.0[A] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 tulip0: EEPROM default media type Autosense. tulip0: Index #0 - Media MII (#11) described by a 21142 MII PHY (3) block. tulip0: MII transceiver #1 config 3100 status 7849 advertising 01e1. eth0: Digital DS21143 Tulip rev 33 at 0xe280ff80, 00:00:D1:1B:EF:2E, IRQ 11.

Any other warm reboots works as well.
"lspci -v" says the following about this card:
-----------------------------schnipp------------------------------------ 02:04.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43 (rev 21) Subsystem: Cogent Data Technologies, Inc.

The same problem exists with 2.4.26 w/o ACPI. As you can imagine it's quite annoying to restart the system once everytime after a cold startup.
Is anyone interested in this bug report? All comments or hints appreciated, because I haven't worked with the Linux network code up to now. 8-)
