[tulip] Intel CardBus ... incomplete EEPROM

[Adrian deLisser]

I am trying to use a (PCcard) Intel EtherExpress PRO Mobile 10/100
CardBus network card under linux.

Having spent some time scouring the archives, it seems that I might need
to alter the contents of my EEPROM. Could someone provide, or direct me
to instructions/examples on using tulip-diag to achieve this?

tulip-diag -aem output follows:

    Media detection by looking for a 1 on general purpose pin 0.
You have an Intel CardBus card with an incomplete EEPROM.
The station address is 00:a0:c9:bb:00:a4
New EEPROM contents would be:

 ID CRC 0xc4 (vs. 0xc4), complete CRC 2c7f.
   No MII transceivers found!
  Internal autonegotiation state is 'Negotiation complete'.
