Hello,
I've prepared eepro100 driver which fixes the known problems, namely:
- EEPROM access failures (visible as reports about wrong EEPROM checksum and
subsequent hangs);
- random initialization fails with spitting of "no RX buffers" and "no
resources" messages;
- some problems with 82559ER hardware.
The driver is at
ftp://ftp.sw.com.sg/pub/Linux/people/saw/kernel/v2.2/
ftp://ftp.swusa.com/pub/Linux/people/saw/kernel/v2.2/
Please, test this driver and report problems (and successes :-)
I need a quick feedback because I want the driver to be included in the
outgoing 2.2.16 kernel.
Many thanks to all who have contributed to the development and testing of
these fixes.
Best regards
Andrey V.
