Hello all, I did a bit more testing, and I think this may be related to the order in which modules are loaded. If I let udev load sungem, and load sym53c8xx manually, everything works. If I let udev load sym53c8xx, and load sungem manually, I get the non-functional network. If I let udev load both modules, I also get the non-functional network. While udev loads sungem first and sym53c8xx later, I don't suppose it waits for one module to 'settle' before loading the next. :-) So to sum it up, the bug is triggered if sym53c8xx is loaded before sungem is. -- Jos van der Ende <seraph@xxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
