Since lots of people complained about this, I have not tried to
debug - maybe a fixed version already exists?
One remark:
2.4.5 says "eth1: media is unconnected, link down, or incompatible connection"
coming from 8139too.c line 1367. The code there is
if (mii_reg5) {
printk(KERN_INFO"%s: Setting %s%s-duplex based on"
" auto-negotiated partner ability %4.4x.\n", dev->name,
mii_reg5 == 0 ? "" :
(mii_reg5 & 0x0180) ? "100mbps " : "10mbps ",
tp->full_duplex ? "full" : "half", mii_reg5);
} else {
printk(KERN_INFO"%s: media is unconnected, link down, "
"or incompatible connection\n",
dev->name);
}
where mii_reg5 is tested against zero inside a conditional
where we know that it is nonzero.
Probably the outer test is wrong.
