Works with the external driver under 2.4.20. Steps to reproduce: Get one (I believe they are built into i810 motherboards, among others) and build 2.5.69 with support for it (modular or in-kernel makes no difference). I believe it worked under 2.5.68 but it was not heavily tested at the time (I can do so if it is needed.) Ifconfig (after multiple dhcp attempts, raising by hand and pinging, etc) shows: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0B:DB:1B:89:3C inet addr:192.168.33.47 Bcast:192.168.33.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:505 errors:0 dropped:10 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:198656 (194.0 KiB) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:11 (note 0 TX packets) Modinfo shows: author: David S.
