Hi all,

Please excuse the offtopicness.

On an Intel d815eea with an onboard e100 NIC, using the e100 driver
sometimes looses packets and causes retransmissions, whereas eepro100
works fine. This is on 2.4.26. Up until 2.4.24 I used eepro100, which
was fine, and in 2.4.25 I moved to e100, which caused problems, that's
why I now tried them both. lspci says:
Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet Controller (rev 01)
I also tried insmoding e100 with ucode=0, which is supposed to disable
the "CPU Cycle Saver". It did not help.

On an Intel D845GEBV2 e100 works fine. lspci:
Intel Corp. 82801BD PRO/100 VE (LOM) Ethernet Controller (rev 82)

Searching google does not give conclusive results - some people are
happy with both, some with one, some with the other.

1. Does anyone have any experience with them? Which one is recommended?
2. Should I report this? Where?

Thanks,
