(as of Mar 12 in bkcvs/linux-2.5/). Acorp VIA77 mobo - AMD-K6 3D 500 MHz + VIA MVP3 chipset. SMC EtherPower^2 (dual DECchip 21040 + 21050 PCI-PCI bridge) All running out of ramdisk. Doing "ifconfig eth0 promisc" kills the ethernet. Interrupts are gone, nothing in dmesg. -promisc nor ifconfig down/up doesn't fix it, only driver rmmod/insmod does. de2104x PCI Ethernet driver v0.6 (Sep 1, 2003) eth0: 21040 at 0xca81e000, 00:00:c0:d8:66:e0, IRQ 11 eth1: 21040 at 0xca820000, 00:00:c0:16:1b:c0, IRQ 12 eth0: enabling interface eth0: set link 10baseT-HD eth0: mode 0xfffc0040, sia 0xffffffc4,0xffff8f01,0xffffffff,0xffff0000 eth0: set mode 0xfffc0000, set sia 0x8f01,0xffff,0x0 eth0: link up, media 10baseT-HD device eth0 entered promiscuous mode Any idea? -- Krzysztof Halasa, B*FH
