[tulip] (problems!!) EtherExpress PRO/100 Mobile 32 bitcardbus --

[Jon Oringer]

[I didn't get the copy sent to me -- so I am going to try again.. not sure
if my
last post worked or not]

I just installed Redhat 6.2 -- Im having problems getting the eepro100 32
bit
PCMCIA cardbus to work..

any network activity after ifup eth0 causes the following message
"eth0": 21140 transmit timed out, status ...
eth0: Tx hung, 15 vs. 9

Facts:
- link light on PCMCIA dongle is ON, link light on HUB is OFF
- EEPROM is reported missing..
- exclude irq 3 is commented out on /etc/pcmcia/config.opts
- my laptop is a Sony PCG-505TX

I found other questions like this on the list -- but couldn't find an
answer.. does anybody have one? or could point me to the answer?

here is more dump info....

 Port selection is 100mbps-SYM/PCS 100baseTx scrambler, half-duplex.
 Transmit stopped, Receive stopped, half-duplex.
  The Rx process state is 'Stopped'.
  The Tx process state is 'Stopped'.
  The transmit threshold is 128.
  The NWay status register is 000000c6.
You have an Intel CardBus card with an incomplete EEPROM.
The station address is 00:a0:c9:79:d6:23
