Noone replied to my question so I'll try a second time.

I have a no-name 10/100 MBit Ethernet card with the Macronix
98715 Chip on it. It is detected my the driver (loaded as a module) but no
packetes flow. ifconfig shows errors.

With a debug level of 4 I get
Dec  7 18:12:09 tabaluga kernel: eth1: tulip_open() irq 11.=20
Dec  7 18:12:09 tabaluga kernel: eth1: No media description table, assuming
 100baseTx transceiver, CSR12 20ce.=20
Dec  7 18:12:09 tabaluga kernel: eth1: interrupt  csr5=3D0xe4670005 new csr=0xe4660000.
Dec  7 18:12:09 tabaluga kernel: eth1: interrupt  csr5=3D0xe4660000 new csr=0xe4660000.
Dec  7 18:12:09 tabaluga kernel: eth1: exiting interrupt, csr5=3D0xe4660000=.
Dec  7 18:12:09 tabaluga kernel: eth1: Done tulip_open(), CSR0 fff84800, CSR5 e4660000 CSR6 38602202

It runs on a 10MBit Hub. If I force the media selection to 10BaseT I get the
attached log.

What could I do to debug the situation further. A newer driver version is
not available.
