Problems trying to use a Intel EtherExpress Pro/10

Hi!

I have a couple of Intel NICs based on chip FA82595TX, the NIC model is 650092, wich is not listed on Intel's site. Anyway, it is recogniced on both 2.2.19 and 2.4.7 as an Intel EtherExpress Pro/10 ISA, I can ifconfig it and everything, but when I try to use it, I get either no packets sent, none received, or packets sent but also a lot of errors and carrier, anyway, I never get to receive a packet.

I have tried both cards on different IO ports, different irqs and different machines, I have disconected the flash as I have read on the code that this could cause problems, but nothing helps.

Anybody has any idea of how to solve this?

Thanks in advance!

Regards...

your board is supported but the driver in kernel is broken at this moment. i'm working hardly these days to make it really stable and i'll release it soon. anyway i put you in my list of beta-testers :)
