You also have a completely different board (82572EI instead of 82571EB), so I'd like to see the usual debugging info as well as hearing from you whether 2.6.19.any works correctly. On top of that I posted a patch to rc5-mm yesterday that fixes a few significant bugs in the rc5-mm driver, so please apply that patch too before trying, so we're not wasting our time finding old bugs ;) Cheers, Auke - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
