Hello!
Tulip driver included in 2.4.18 doesn't work for me. I have tulip-based
card which is connected to 10Mbps HUB. The driver fails to set 10Mbps
halfduplex, and because of that the link between computer and HUB doesn't
work. HUB keeps flashing it's lights wildly (because my tulip tries to
enable 100Mbps..), and the link-led doesn't turn on..
Tulip driver 0.9.14 (available from sourceforge) works OK and correctly
sets 10Mbps halfduplex.
This is what mii-diag says when using 2.4.18:
Basic registers of MII PHY #32: 2000 7848 0000 0000 01e1 0000 0000 0000.
Basic mode control register 0x2000: Auto-negotiation disabled, with
Speed fixed at 100 mbps, half-duplex.
Basic mode status register 0x7848 ... 7848.
Link status: not established.
Link partner information information is not exchanged when in fixed speed
mode. End of basic transceiver informaion.
And after a couple of seconds it says this:
Basic registers of MII PHY #32: 1000 7848 0000 0000 01e1 0000 0000 0000.
Basic mode control register 0x1000: Auto-negotiation enabled.
Basic mode status register 0x7848 ... 7848.
Link status: not established.
End of basic transceiver informaion.
And then after a couple of seconds comes the 100Mbps again (the first
mii-diag paste) and loop continues..

Any ideas?
