Dear all.

Thanks to one of the Masterstudents here, which has extensive experience with LAN-Parties I managed to find and correct the problem. The non-working connection was not based on the auto-negotiation, but a problem of correct setting of the involved the IPs. Somehow DHCP on Raspbian [1] doesn't "get" it when the camera is connected.

Typing
        $ sudo ifconfig 192.168.0.1
, unplugging and reconnecting the camera did the trick.

Now I'm onto the next problem. The user-interface over 192.168.0.9/camvc.html is unuseably slow on that whimsy computer, so I need to whip up some Python code to download single images as fast as possible...

David,
This should solve the problem on raspberry pi:
mii-tool -A 100baseTx eth0

| Hello David,
|
| Auto-negotiation between raspbery-pi and Elphel 353 with a
