#1 lore raw

Hi folks,

Does anyone know why a Linux ethernet driver might appear to be up & working (that is, no errors, ifconfig says UP, etc), and the board has a link light on it, but the hub link light is not on and no packets are transmitted or received? rmmod/insmod of the driver doesn't help.

I have an ne2k/ISA Atlantic card that is doing this in either wd or ne mode with a 2.2.14 kernel, and can't get it running... help!

Ruth

Plug the cable into the hub before powering up the chip ? I have at least one crap ne2k clone that only does the detect at boot
