Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2007 10:57:11 +0100 From: pgs@...erway.com To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: need some help on a backport of r8169 Hello Ueimor, I succeeded to make the MII ioctls work in the r1000 driver. It seems to be a solution for my problem. Thank you a lot, it wouldn't have been possible without your help. You allowed me to place some debug in the r8169 driver and look at it with an up interface so I could compare some values. I will send you my patch for r1000, if it can be of any use for you, however I don't think I can do it before next week. Though I continue to send you the interesting informations. See further.
