Re: xircom combo card + kernel 2.4.5
Well, my Xircom RealPort (REM56G-100) continues to timeout every 1
minute or so (and it stays "offline" for about 30 seconds and them
recovers).
This happens with kernel 2.4.5, pcmcia-cs-3.1.26 and
$ /sbin/lsmod
Module Size Used by
xirc2ps_cs 14048 1
maestro 27040 1 (autoclean)
soundcore 3728 2 (autoclean) [maestro]
$ dmesg
(...)
eth0: MII link partner: 01e1
eth0: MII selected
eth0: media 100BaseT, silicon revision 0
eth0: Xircom: port 0x300, irq 4, hwaddr 00:10:A4:E5:B9:74
ttyS03 at port 0x02e8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
By the way, just curiosity, how do you explain this "promiscuous good
behaviour"?
