i've noticed this too, and it's probably from all the mucking about I
did trying to combine becker's method of forcing duplex/speed with the
one in 2.4.19. That stuff is unrelated to the other, more-important
merges I did that actually affect how well the card works. Jeff rightly
pointed out that I should separate out chunks of the patch for
submission, but I haven't had time.
This card is still nowhere near working well, even with my patch. It
silently drops many frames when simultaneously sending and receiving at
high packet rates. It also locks up under load, and is reset in
tx_timeout. This happens less frequently with my patch, but is not
entirely gone.
Also, I need to investigate yet another variation on this driver, as
pointed out in
