Hi!
I have just updated my server to 2.6.24 and the dl2k driver has stopped working.
The problem seems to be when autoselecting the media, the driver says that the card is set as "Auto 1000 Mbps, Half duplex" instead of the usual "Auto 1000 Mbps, Full duplex", I have tried setting "options dl2k media=1000mbps_fd" but that didn't seem to change anything (the driver still said "Auto 1000 Mbps, Half duplex").
I've been playing with ethtools and got it to work at 100FD by setting it manually, but if afterwards I set it to auto it again goes 1000 HD and thus not working again.
I'm not getting any special messages from the kernel, the ifconfig shows this when the card is failing:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:05:5D:79:5B:56 inet addr:192.168.1.90 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:99 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:99 TX packets:54 errors:54 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:54 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:6536 (6.3 KiB) Interrupt:11 Base address:0xe800
lspci for my card shows:

The machine is a PIII with a via chipset and the card was working perfectly at 2.6.23 and before.
If you need any more info don't hesitate to ask.
