Hi!

i am experiencing the following problem with my AMD PCnet/PCI nic:

  if i connect to a 10mbit segment -> doesn't work * (explained below)
  if i connect to the same 10mbit segment via a 10/100mbit dual speed hub
    -> works perfectly (100hdx)
  if i set the nic manually to operate at 10mbit the link goes down for a
    moment and comes up again with 100mbit
  if i do the same running win2k i have network connection at 10 and 100mbit

using win2k is NOT a solution :)

* what i meant with "doesn't work" is:

  using tcpdump i can see my outgoing eth-frames (don't think that prooves
  that they make it to the wire)
  i can see broadcasts from other machines
  i never get a response from the others

i'm using 4.3-RELEASE with stable kernel cvsuped on 27.5 

thanks a lot for your help!
  chris
