I am comparing between  2.6.26.5 and your tree, these are the
differences I referred to.

Stefan, you are a gentleman and a scholar: this is exactly where my
problem was. Thank you for saving me from wasting lots of time trying
to figure out what's 'wrong' with the driver.

Now, comparing glacier GPIO settings with the 460Gx datasheet (rev
1.07 of May 29) it seems that the datasheet is wrong and suggests
using of ALT2 mode for the RGMII2 gpio pins(does not work) as opposed
ALT1 used in glacier (and actually working apart from a problem I
still am seeing with the TX). Do you remember anything about this?

TIA,
