With 0.90, it works.
However, I'm noticing several oddities:
About half the time, it still says:
eth2: ***WARNING***: No MII transceiver found!
It seems to be confused as to whether it's a 21142 or a 21143:
eth2: Digital DS21143 Tulip at 0x6000, 00 00 d1 1a 23 d1, IRQ 15.
eth2: EEPROM default media type Autosense.
eth2: Index #0 - Media MII (#11) described by a 21142 MII PHY (3) block.
In /proc/pci, it reports:
Bus 0, device 17, function 0:
Ethernet controller: DEC DC21142 (rev 33).
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 15. Master Capable.
Late
ncy=32. Min Gnt=20.Max Lat=40.
I/O at 0x6000.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xf2000000.
so I assume it really is a 21142 (it would be a pain to look at the card now).
So at this point, I don't have a problem with it, but I would be happy to test
new versions to see if they solve the cosmetic problems or create new problems.
