I'm probably stupid, but I really can't find that post. Could anyone
repost please?
found it (yes, this means i'm stupid)
First of all, please consider all the patches i sent as junk. The
mentioned patch is better than mine by a factor of a few thousands.
I've tested the patch on 2.6.16-rc4 with both allied telesyn 2700ftx and
2701ftx (both hava phy_id=1 for fiber and phy_id=2 for copper).
Basic result: Works perfectly (exceptions see below) out of the box
Problem 1: During probe1, lp->options is silently overwritten with
PCNET32_PORT_MII. Even setting the statement to lp->options |= doesn't
help mutch, the eeprom defaults of the card are used always.
Problem 2: Switching only works if the cards eeprom is programmed to use
the fiber port as default. Otherwise the fiber port is seen (output says
yes, i've got two phys) but not used.

Philippe Seewer
