I haven't been able to test rc5-mm yet because it won't boot on this

others I'm unsure of.

that won't work. You either need to start with 2.6.20-rc5 (and pull
the changes pending merge in netdev-2.6 from Jeff Garzik),

I thought that's what I was doing when I applied git-e1000 to 2.6.20-rc5, but I guess not.

or start
with 2.6.20-rc4-mm1 and manually apply that patch I sent out on
monday. A different combination of either of these two will not work,
as they are completely different drivers.

I'll try to work something out.

can you include `ethtool ethX` output of the link down message and
`ethtool -d ethX` as well? I'll need to dig up an 82572 and see
what's up with that, I've not seen that problem before.

ethtool output attached.

that clearly shows that the PHY detected link up status and that all is well as far as the driver and NIC is concerned. This bug really needs to be moved to linux-pci where the folks who know interrupt handling best can handle it.
