Accton 1207BTX1 link renegotiation failure

Hi,

a little problem here: link renegotiation does not work with the first
(eth0)
Accton EN1207B-TX1 nic, ie. if I disconnect and then reconnect
the RJ45 cable, the link won't come back. Only booting the machine
helps.

This happens with all the drivers I have tested, including tulip-0.90 and
de4x5,
100Mbit/s or 10Mbit/s.

With the second nic (eth1) renegotiation works just fine.

If I change the first nic to D-Link DFE500TX, everything works fine...

EN1207B-TX1: Digital 21140-AF, Level1 LXT970QC.

Any help is welcome.


Thanks,
