860T FEC

From: Timothy Ritchey <hidden>

Has anyone had any luck with the 860T FEC driver in the 2.4 kernel (I am
using the 01/13/01 snapshot from FSMLabs). It is certainly not working
out-of-the-box as it were. For example, it tries calling mii_queue with
read operations that require the MII interrupt before interrupts have
even been enabled. There is code that needs to be run in the
fec_restart() function (such as the interrupt enable, and just enabling
the ethernet device) but it is never called. I cannot see how this code
was ever working properly. Is anyone running it that can refute this? I
have made some changes that seem to get it halfway there, but am not
getting any transmit interrupts yet (I am getting receive and mii
interrupts).

Cheers,
tim

If you would have searched the archives, you would have noticed:

	1) We know it doesn't work
	2) Wolfgang Denk has one you can download
	3) BenH probably has a better one by now
