[Cbe-oss-dev] spider_net problem in 2.6.20

[michael k lang]

Looking for help with spider_net on the 2.6.20,
Problem is ethernet doesn't work.  Looks like it is revc a bunch of
error interupts it doesn't know what to do with.

in dmesg I get 390 of these:
Got error interrupt on eth0, GHIINT0STS = 0x00000060, GHIINT1STS =
0x00010000, GHIINT2STS = 0x00000000

followed by 13 of:
eth0: forcing end of tx descriptor with status xa0000000


I tried backporting the 2.6.19 driver that shipped with fedora core 6 
( just dropping the 3rd argument in the INIT_WORK macro)

I also tried putting back in some of the flags from the 2.6.19 version
that were dropped in 2.6.20. but no luck I get the same behavior.

If you look in lspci -vxxx I see different values in the output for
2.6.19 vs .20, but with no idea what they mean.

let me know if you need more info, this is on an 2.4 GHz cell blade.

Thanks
