hi,
this old problem I had been faced with had been solved with 2.4.3-ac13/14,
but now with kernel 2.4.4-ac9 and all other 2.4.4-acx it came up again.
It's a Realtek 8139C chip on a AT2500 (allied telesyn or sumpin like that)
Instead the former

auto-negotiated partner ability 0000.
I have now an unconnected cable which is not the fact:)

May 16 15:20:44 bello kernel: eth1: Tx descriptor 2 is 00002000.

head)
May 16 15:20:44 bello kernel: eth1: media is unconnected, link down, or
incompatible connection
Could I adjust some values, like tx buffer to get it to work?
Please excuse my unscientific nature.
I can as well supply any more information about the scenario...

Axel Siebenwirth
