on vanilla linux kernel, eepro doesn't work, and with 1496 mtu, 8139too works with any mtu (and 1500). which is recommended to use, e100 or eepro100?
As I mentioned, the e100 (intel's driver) is the one I recommend. eepro100 does not seem to be updated in the kernel anymore, though if you go figure out how to install Becker's drivers, he may have it working with vlans by now. Ben

is there any problems to include full vlans support?Intel's e100 driver (and all NICs supported by it) support vlans fine, as do most of the GigE NICs. Tulip does not, last I hear, though a work-around patch has been around forever. Realtek worked at one time, not sure about now though...
