so everything seems OK with your power :-)

oops.  right.  I looked for something like

	temp_mac[0] = dev->dev_addr[0] << $shiftfor0 | ...

which AFAIK is what you want here.  memcpy is sensible to (at least)
endian issues.  If you ask me factor out the setting of the mac address
in probe to a function and use that here, too.

Uwe
