I'm not exactly sure whom you're addressing:  the  email  addess  was
Dan's  but  the  name  is mine, and it seems you are referring to the
kernel version on our FTP server, so I jump in ...

What do you think  it  means?  Here,  it's  the  offset  of  the  FEC
parameter RAM in the IMMR memory map. And yes, 0xE00 is correct.

Looks good to me...

Are you sure about those settings? To me  it  seems  Bcast  and  Mask
don't match...

What happens when you enable the MDIO option?

Did you enable the LXT971 code, then? Sorry, I don't  have  any  CLLF
boards here, so I cannot test this myself.

Just tested it (again) on a TQM860L-P.50; works fine for me.
