Subject: ASUS NX1001 (IP100A, sundance) PHY not powered up

Hi,

Trying a new ASUS NX1001 adapter (1043:8213) with a IP100A chip
(13f0:0200) (rev 31) on a machine running Fedora development (2.6.23.1 +
some unrelated to sundance patches). 

On power up the link appears down (judging by the switch port its
connected to).  The normal fedora startup has udev which loads the
sundance driver, dmesg says it has done so, the link still down.
rmmod sundance - still down.
modprobe sundance - still down.
rmmod sundance - link up
modprobe sundance - link down
rmmod sundance - link up
..
?
All these with no indication of error in the logs.

Same make adapter from the same batch appears to function under win2k
after loading the driver from the cd.  Again the link appears to be
powered up when the driver is loaded.

The LED on the card is only active on data activity not link status. 

Puzzled
Yanko
