Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for the reply.

"ifconfig can0 down" results in an "unknown host" error.  The output of
"ifconfig can0" is:

can0      Link encap:(hwtype unknown)
          UP RUNNING NOARP  MTU:16
          txqueuelen:10

I'm using ifconfig from inetutils 1.5.

Driver-level or user-level?

Is this a problem or expected?  CONFIG_CAN_DEBUG is on, in case it
matters.

Yes, this is the correct clock.  We're running our AT91SAM9263 around
200 MHz -- keyword "around".  It's actually more like 198 MHz, and the
1/2 clock becomes around 99 MHz.

OK, I'll try tweaking all these to see where we get.

Thanks again!
