Hi,
And now, for something completely different, no libata ;-)
I was wondering if any of you ever got the sky2 driver working
(gigabit network card found in most Siemens E laptops).
Which kernel I am trying, 2.6.17-gentoo (the kernel on the install
CD), 2.6.20, the latest gits, nothing works. It either tells me "Link
not ready" when bringing the interface up or it just gives massive
time outs.
Then, after literaly 6 reboots, it might get a DHCPACK, work, till the
next reboot, then same story all over again.
Any clue towards module settings or patches are welcome,
At the moment I am compiling Jeff's netdev upstream-linus.

I have :

PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:04:00.0 to 64
sky2 0000:04:00.0: v1.13 addr 0xff8fc000 irq 19 Yukon-EC (0xb6) rev 2
sky2 eth0: addr 00:18:f3:e0:5d:d4
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:03:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

sky2 0000:03:00.0: v1.13 addr 0xff7fc000 irq 16 Yukon-EC (0xb6) rev 2

and a wonderfully working eth0 interface...
