Has anybody used PPC 440GX with NS DP83865 phy? If you have or have any
information to set it up, please share. 

We're using this PHY on a custom 440GX board. Connected via GMII!
After setting up the RGMII bridge correctly (see manual), you also have to
tweak the EMAC driver. I have sent a patch (which has been rejected) a few
weeks ago to the list which changes the setup procedure of the EMAC to work
with a DP83865 PHY. THe current implementation will not work.

FWIW, I did go back and see the patch from 22 October in my mbox.  It's
not rejected...just missed amongst a lot of other things. If things
are quiet, it's best to ping in case somebody missed your patch.

Thanks,
Matt

Matt - no problem. The answer in october, I got from Eugene was, that
you guys are working on a "new" EMAC driver with NAPI support and I also
had a running setup - so - no worries ;)
