Hi, The gianfar driver of 2.6.12 and 2.4.20 give different outputs on the same PPC 8540 board.
What could be the reason ? Output on 2.4.20 : /root # ifconfig eth0 172.28.8.254 up eth0: PHY is Marvell 88E1011S (1410c62) eth0: Auto-negotiation done eth0: Half Duplex eth0: Speed 10BT eth0: Link is up Output on 2.6.12 / # ifconfig eth0 172.28.8.254 up eth0: PHY is Generic MII (ffffffff) Kernel bootup mesages on 2.6.12 for eth initialisation : [ 1.706436] eth0: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.1, 00:01:af:07:9b:8a [ 1.713769] eth0: Running with NAPI disabled [ 1.718137] eth0: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size [ 1.722483] eth1: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.1, fd:e4:75:9d:72:6f [ 1.729812] eth1: Running with NAPI disabled [ 1.734180] eth1: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size [ 1.738521] eth2: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.1, 6f:74:3d:2f:64:65 [ 1.745851] eth2: Running with NAPI disabled [ 1.750218] eth2: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size On 2.4.20 it is the same : eth0: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.0, 00:01:af:07:9b:8a eth0: Running with NAPI disabled eth0: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size eth1: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.0, fd:e4:75:9d:72:6f eth1: Running with NAPI disabled eth1: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size eth2: Gianfar Ethernet Controller Version 1.0, 6f:74:3d:2f:64:65 eth2: Running with NAPI disabled eth2: 64/64 RX/TX BD ring size I am able to ping and use telnet,ftp etc when booted from 2.4.20 but ping, telnet,ftp, don't work eventhough i use same ramdisk in both the cases. ifconfig shows card is up in 2.6.12 too.
