Hi,

Yes I should have been more verbose in this area.

So its a 2.2.19 kernel from redhat on a rh6.2 box.
This appears to have been built with a eepro.c that has
"eepro100.c:v1.09j-t 9/29/99,
though the last modification appears to be

2000 Nov 15 , Changed command completion time and added debug info, ...

  Internal registers self-test: passed.
  ROM checksum self-test: passed (0x04f4518b).


The tests I have tried include the eepro test disk from intel which
passed just fine including setting up a responder.

Also, 

[root@gppce06 /root]# ./mii-diag
Using the default interface 'eth0'.

 The autonegotiated capability is 01e0.
The autonegotiated media type is 100baseTx-FD.

 You have link beat, and everything is working OK.

[root@gppce06 /root]# ./eepro100-diag -f -a

  No interrupt sources are pending.
   The transmit unit state is 'Suspended'.

  This status is normal for an activated but idle interface.
 The Command register has an unprocessed command 0c00(?!).


which all looks correct to me?
