Hi,
on two different machines the ethernet card works with kernel 2.2.20 but
not with kernel 2.4.22 (both contain machines contain the same card).
Card:
lspci:
00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: Standard Microsystems Corp [SMC] 83C170QF (rev 08)
cat /proc/pci:
Bus 0, device 11, function 0:
Ethernet controller: SMC 9432 TX (rev 8).
Fast devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 10. Master Capable.
Latency=32. Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=28.
I/O at 0xb000 [0xb001].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xde800000 [0xde800000].
Kernel 2.2.20 (working):
kernel: eth0: SMSC EPIC/100 83c170 at 0xb000, IRQ 10, 00:e0:29:3d:e4:6f.
kernel: eth0: MII transceiver #3 control 3000 status 7809.
kernel: eth0: Autonegotiation advertising 01e1 link partner 0001.
...
kernel: eth0: Setting full-duplex based on MII #3 link partner capability of 45e1.

Does anyone have an idea what's going wrong in 2.4.22?
