Hiho!

I do not get my levelOne FPC-0101TX CardBus Ethernetcard (DS21143-Chip)
to work with Linux. I use Kernel 2.2.13, pcmcia-cs 3.1.5. I use it (or
better: try to use it) in an Acer TravelMate 513T. It has an 02Micro
6832-Cardbus-bridge built in.

The drivers install and recognize the card correctly. But wehn I try to
send data out, the kernel says "Tx hung, n vs. 0". No data is sent onto
the net. Interesting is, that Rx seems to work, when in ping my machine
from outside, ifconfig shows me an increasing number of dropped packtes
on rx. On tx only the errors increase.

The card is connected to a fast-ethernet-switch.

The card does its job well under win98, but i do not want to use it
there!

The IRQ-counter of /proc/interrupts shows me that now IRQs happen on the
card, the counter remains at zero, that seems for me to be very strange.
the card is configured to IRQ 11, windows uses irq 9...

I attached some output of "dmesg" (debug=4), "lspci -v", and "tulip-diag
-aa -ee -mm".

What can I do? I need this stuff working!

Thank you very much in advance!

Lennart
