[eepro100] problem resuming

Tue, 30 Jan 2001 11:40:36 +0100

Donald,

I have a problem with the eepro100.c, the card does not get back to life
after returning from suspended mode.  I've tried installing the driver
from skyld (eepro100.c:v1.13 1/9/2001 Donald Becker <becker@scyld.com>)
with no luck.

I'm running debian 2.2.18pre21 on an Dell Inspiron 8000.  The card is a
MiniPCI OEM card from a company called Actiontec.

So, everything works fine until I suspend the laptop computer.  When I
do this, and keep the cable plugged into the RJ45 jack, the light on the
card stays ON, until I hit the powerkey to resume the machine.  At this
point, the light goes out and never returns.  Trying to reestablish the
eth0 device fails.

Another observation: it seems that I cannot close down this device
either.  If I do "ifdown" on this device, then the lamp stays on for the
device, even though it is disconnected from the operating system, of
cause.

Also, Windows device manager tells me that this is a i82559.   The BIOS
has a feature to awaken the machine at a certain magic packet arriving
on the net.  I've disabled this feature, but it changes nothing.

Any input would be appreciated!

Kresten
