I noticed that in the file arch/ppc/8xx_io/Config.in in the 2.4.22-pre3 kernel (the devel)
CONFIG_FEC_LXT970 is listed twice, whereas I think the second instance should be for the 971/972. My update was: bool 'Support AMD79C874 PHY' CONFIG_FEC_AM79C874 bool 'Support LXT970 PHY' CONFIG_FEC_LXT970 bool 'Support QS6612 PHY' CONFIG_FEC_QS6612 bool 'Support LXT971/972 PHY' CONFIG_FEC_LXT971 bool 'Support DP83843 PHY' CONFIG_FEC_DP83843 Otherwise, you can't use a 971/972 chip On the other hand, I like seeing these as configuration options instead of having to hack the fec.c file every time! :) Thanks Dean ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
