However, I did find another bug I introduced during the "mii refactor" patch that you mentioned as being the original source of the problem. That bug will cause 802.3ad to not notice speed changes. Could you test the patch below on your 2.6.68.7 and/or 2.6.27.19 and see if it resolves your problem (without the forcedeth patch)?There was something missing from the header to make it compile.. I found that in a later version. Patch below fixed the problem (without the forcedeth patch).Jay please resend this with proper signoffs etc. if you want me to apply it.I posted it again with the usual stuff a day or two after I posted the test patch; I'll append it to the end of this email. Note that the below patch has a minor cosmetic change from the test patch. I believe this fix should go to -stable for 2.6.26 and 2.6.27, but it'll need the change Jesper added to pick up a macro that was added to mainline:
Applied and I'll queue it up for -stable too, thanks!
