My intention is not to waste anybody's time and I think, I did not. As I =
mentioned to you earlier that I am working on the vendor provided =
version of Linux Kernel 2.4.27-pre3, which looks clearly from =
kernel.org. The value of PPC440GX_TAH0_ADDR and PPC440GX_TAH1_ADDR in =
arch/ppc/platforms/ibm440gx.h is 0x0000000140000b00 & 0x0000000140000d00 =
respectively. I verified this value in lk 2.4.30 also, these values are =
the same.

Though in lk 2.6.x, the values have been hardcoded in the =
arch/ppc/platforms/ibm440gx.c to 0x0000000140000b50 and =
0x0000000140000d50. Therefore, the confusion.

I hope this clears your misunderstanding. I did not see your suggestion =
for using your version of 2.4.x backported driver of ibm_emac. I could =
use it, if you send it again.

Thanks,
Sanjay

Where did you get this incorrect code?

You see, you should have used supported sources (2.6) or the one I=20
recommended to you (my 2.4 backport) but you have ignored this =20

Please, next time if you use some stuff which isn't in kernel.org's=20

because we cannot help you as we don't have the source code you are=20
