Re: 2.6.24 AT91 MACB driver broken

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]


It seems that the problem is fixed in 2.6.25.  The patch can be found  
here: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/ 
2008/1/11/560006 .  The mii_bus:phy_addr is still shown to be  
'ffffffff:00' in the boot output, but ethernet does actually work.
