If the above information is correct, could someone please > take a look and tell me which chip they use. I did the original development of the FEC driver on the 860T FADS board. I uses the Level One LTX970 part. I have another board in hand right now that uses the Quality Semiconductor QS6612 part. I'll have the driver ready pretty soon. This increases the complexity of the MII functions in the current FEC driver. I will probably use the de4x5.c as a model. We now have to determine which PHY is used and program accordingly. The driver currently does not support multiply PHYs, and I don't intend to do the modification until I have such a configuration. There is currently and assumption the PHY address is known and fixed (by default it is device 0). I have tested this driver with both 10 and 100 Mbit networks, however I have not found a full duplex 100 Mbit for testing. The FEC needs to be reprogrammed when this is detected. -- Dan [[ This message was sent via the linuxppc-dev mailing list.
