Does this patch fix the problem? It is something I saw while doing
review for support of newer chips.

This code inherited from the sk98lin driver is incorrect on the Yukon2.
The definition used for these bits is incorrect. Act

Hi folks,
in the last 2 days, I had 2 outages of the NIC of my Mac mini Core Duo.
I checked the kernel log but I found nothing sky2 related. After
reloading the module, the interface worked again.
Both freezes were connected to access from a remote NFS client to a
directory with ~4700 files in it

Possibly related, could the TX hangs be due to extreme load / no free
memory on the machine? I just realised that my application appears to
be loading the machine to the max... (i.e. all 2GB RAM used + another

sky2 basically runs fine on my hardware, but reproducably hangs after some
