It's using the fcc_enet.c driver on Linux 2.4.18 from Elinos distribution (version 0.3 of the driver). I face the following problem : When sending 802.3 frames from a PowerMac, and receiving them on my custom board in promiscuous mode, about 10% of the frames are lost. Does anyone know if the driver has bugs when working in promiscuous mode, that could explain such a phenomen ? Is this version of the driver the up to date version (looking in sources from RedHat Linux 9 for PPC, it seems that the driver version is only 0.2) ? Thanks for help or hints.
