Depends on what you call "set speed/duplex correctly in EEPROM": I would call "correct" the autonegotiate/nway setting. Then mii-diag would work. For some cards, if the EEPROM settings are not autonegotiate/nway, the driver seems not to be able to control the MII, although there is no documentation that would cover this case. -- Bogdan Costescu IWR - Interdisziplinaeres Zentrum fuer Wissenschaftliches Rechnen Universitaet Heidelberg, INF 368, D-69120 Heidelberg, GERMANY Telephone: +49 6221 54 8869, Telefax: +49 6221 54 8868 E-mail: [email protected] _______________________________________________ vortex mailing list [email protected] http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/vortex
