Hi Paul,

your 'ip' is just too old.

Please use the latest 'ip' from the iproute2 packet e.g. from

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/iproute2/iproute2.git

When you see "link/can" instead of "link/[280]" you can also change the
bitrates and see the details of the CAN netlink functions.

Regards,
Oliver

Yes, the bitrate is not set.
