RE: PnP support for Linux [PATCH]

Funny thing, I have 2 boxes with 3c509b's installed, suddenly with this patch,
ifconfig says packets on a ping between the two have been sent and replies
received, but nothing shows up as returned.
I can't NFS mount anything or get IP-forwarding to work. If I boot one box on
2.1.113, everything works fine. I've only tried this by re-booting just one
machine.
Both machines are using 2.1.115 + ac2 + diff-pnp when networking fails to work.
tcpdump -i eth0 shows that one machine is recieving an "arp who has" with no
replies seen, yet ifconfig says different, the other way round, the other
machine doesn't see anything, the light for it on the Hub doesn't flicker, but
ifconfig says it's receiving ........ weird or what ? The workaround does the
job, so it's no bother at the moment.
