Yes, LEDs are blinking, an if a cable is connected the link leds are on. 
while pinging from the host pc the traffic led in front of the jack is 
blinking also

no interrupts on eth0:
  0:          0  Xilinx Interrupt Controller Edge      eth0
  1:        889  Xilinx Interrupt Controller Level     serial

Yes, i will try this. i use this board with the edk 8.2 a year ago. with 
this edk version the emaclite was working fine. but in this project 
there was an ip core "Hard Temac" this is missing now. i think i have an 
error in my edk project.
