Hi,

I have 2 net cards in my computer one is rl and the other is Intel fxp.
I have installed 4.6-RC2 and then I added this fxp card but it seems there
are some problems with it.

...
pci0: <VIA 83C572 USB controller> at 4.3 irq 9
pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1106, dev=0x3057) at 4.4
pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x13f6, dev=0x0111) at 5.0 irq 10
rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0xa000-0xa0ff
     mem 0xe4800000-0xe48000ff irq 5 at device 10.0 on pci0
rl0: Ethernet address: 00:40:f4:2f:ef:18
miibus0: <MII bus> on rl0
rlphy0: <RealTek internal media interface> on miibus0
rlphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0x9800-0x981f
      mem 0xe4000000-0xe40fffff,0xe7000000-0xe7000fff irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0
fxp0: Ethernet address 00:a0:c9:a3:b2:7b
fxp0: MII without any PHY!
device_probe_and_attach: fxp0 attach returned 6

After this I've changed the fxp card with an older fxp card (known as
working) from an other computer and this card works fine on my
computer under 4.6-RC2. Here is the dmesg with the working card.

...
pci0: <VIA 83C572 USB controller> at 4.3 irq 9
pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1106, dev=0x3057) at 4.4
pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x13f6, dev=0x0111) at 5.0 irq 10
rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0xa000-0xa0ff
     mem 0xe5800000-0xe58000ff irq 5 at device 10.0 on pci0
rl0: Ethernet address: 00:40:f4:2f:ef:18
miibus0: <MII bus> on rl0
rlphy0: <RealTek internal media interface> on miibus0
rlphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0x9800-0x983f
       mem 0xe4800000-0xe48fffff,0xe5000000-0xe5000fff irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0
fxp0: Ethernet address 00:d0:b7:16:3d:4c
inphy0: <i82555 10/100 media interface> on miibus1
inphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
...

So I moved the not working fxp card (let's say the new one -- because it's
new) to the other computer (also with 4.6RC2) and I have realized that,
when rebooting, the card is working sometime, but next time when I reboot
it could happen that the card is not working (the same message fxp0: MII
without any PHY! device_probe_and_attach: fxp0 attach returned 6 ).

The problem occurs both with GENERIC and custom kernel (no SMP).
Any hints?

Regards,

Gheorghe ARDELEAN
