I have a NetGear FA311 pci card that uses the natsemi.c driver and have
had no
problems with it in all kernels 2.4.0 through 2.4.5. However with 2.4.6
(also
tried 2.4.6-ac2) I am getting strange behavior. As soon as an ip is
given to it
(with either dhcp or manual ip) this error message keeps repeating:
eth0: Something Wicked happened! 18000
and I can't ping anything else except itself. It's always 18000. I've
tried
switching the card to another pci slot, checked the cables, etc. When I
switch back
to kernel 2.4.5 everything works perfectly.
The bootup message is: eth0: Setting full-duplex based on negotiated link
capability.
And lspci shows: Ethernet controller: National Semiconductor
Corporation: Unknown
device 0020
The computer is a k6-2 400 with an ASUS P5A motherboard (ALi chipset)
