Hi Francois,

sorry, i 4got to add the netdev-cc should not happen again ;-)

I still cannot access some patches (maybe u get them via browser cache or no 
right restrictions?)

So, i added all your patches(1-21) from the bz2 file in the root-dir to a plain 
driver from 2.6.22.1 ...

Fact is: I still have missing multicast packet income, but things changed:

before i had one good try within 20, now i get my packet stream every second to 
3rd try.

Descrition what i do:

i'm sending multicast packets (e.g. Dstn IP 224.1.13.1 port 10501) every 8,9ms 
the packetlen is 496 bytes (it's a RTP stream) to my linux system and monitor 
incoming packets with tcpdump -i eth0 (and my application of course)

What i get now is, almost every 2nd attempt i start transmitting packets i get 
them just fine (without any drops between) on the other side on some attempts i 
start sending and i see no incoming multicast packets with tcpdump (as well as 
from within the receiving application)

routes look OK, netstat -g shows correct memberships

Greetings
Robert

Is there a specific reason why you did not Cc: netdev@vger.kernel.org ?

Ok. It's the expected result.

0020, 0021 and probably some bits of the merge with Realtek's driver.

Start gross and apply everything. It takes something along the lines of:
cat series | while read f; do patch -p1 $f; done

Can you check your command line or grep the tarball in the upper directory ?
