Hi Linas,

This is kiran here from Bangalore,India.

I saw your patch dated feb 16 2007 for bcm5461.

I assume you are refering to "[PATCH 1/12]: sungem_phy: support bcm5461 phy, autoneg."
right?  This patch is originally from Jens Osterkamp, who would be more expert than I.

I'm working on mpc8548e based board which has a bcm5461 phy configured for fiber mode.

I'm receiving from the other system if i connect it on lan in "ping". But when i ping from the mpc8548e board which has bcn5461.
the counters shows error in packet (RUNT errors). Please throw some light on the same.
I'm using gianfar drivers.

I'm confused -- the gianfar drivers do not make use of the sungem_phy
code, so I do not understand why this patch would affect you. Can you
clarify?
