Any chance you can boot back to the old kernel (the one where is was working) and run and ethtool -i eth0 on that one to see what version of the driver was used there? It's hard to know what may have changed between the 2 versions of the driver since I don't know the starting point. It's also hard to know if this is fixed already since you aren't running the latest upstream kernel. Downloading, building, and testing the latest from kernel.org would be a good way to know if this is already fixed. - 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
