Donald,
I tried the new device driver as well and am still getting the following:
-----------------------------------------
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: The PCI BIOS has not enabled this device!
Updating PCI command 0103->0107.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: eth0: Invalid EEPROM checksum 0x21f5, check
settings before activating this device!
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: eth0: Intel PCI EtherExpress Pro100 at 0x7c40,
00:81:00:80:A6:9C, IRQ 11.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Receiver lock-up bug exists -- enabling
work-around.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Board assembly 800080-000, Physical
connectors present:
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Primary interface chip None PHY #0.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Forcing 100Mbs full-duplex operation.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: General self-test: passed.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Serial sub-system self-test: passed.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Internal registers self-test: passed.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: ROM checksum self-test: passed (0x04f4518b).
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Receiver lock-up workaround activated.
---------------------------------------------------
I checked the driver code and it appears that it is still checking for a
checksum of 0xBABA. Is this checksum different for an 82559 than others? I
have another Intel card in it, and it is coming up with the correct mac addr,
etc. Following is it's output:
----------------------------------

Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: General self-test: passed.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Serial sub-system self-test: passed.
Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Internal registers self-test: passed.

Jun 23 14:36:00 SGUSTMPQA kernel: Receiver lock-up workaround activated.
---------------------------------
In the first one, the Primary interface chip is showing up as "NONE". Are there
any #defines that I have to set that may be affecting this?
Thanks,

One of the changes for the '559 was increasing the EEPROM size from 64 to
256 words. You'll need an updated driver to correctly read the larger
EEPROM.
