I have a machine running RH 6.1 with an Intel Ethernet Express Pro 100 NIC.
I try to force this card to run at 10Mbs, but it doesn't seem to work. I've
tried 'insmod eepro100 options=0x40' with no success. The log and link
light disagree. The log is shown below, but the link light on the hub still
shows it connected at 100.
I've checked the EEPro100 Mailing List archive on Tux with no results.
Anybody have a clue on this one?
This card works under Windows.
Log after 'insmod eepro100 debug=6 options=0x40:
