If you're referring to picking up the appropriate controller/phys (skc and eephy for this card), dmassage handles all that automagically. On the other hand, I might take some time next week to compile a kernel to see if the problem is related to one of the other phys being needed (brgphy and xmphy are referenced). > > Since GENERIC works fine, I am going to stick with that for the time > > being. > > Good idea.

I'll see if I can find the time to experiment some more and/or peruse the code for hints. Thanks. --david
