Well, now I have some more information, which make me wonder:

I am currently trying to debug the rtl8139 card:

00:05.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)

00:05.0 Class 0200: 10ec:8139 (rev 10)

Subsystem: 10ec:8139
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Step
ping- SERR+ FastB2B-
        Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort
- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
        Latency: 64 (8000ns min, 16000ns max)
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 5
        Region 0: I/O ports at d600 [size=256]
        Region 1: Memory at effaee00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256]
        Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
                Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=375mA PME(D0-,D1+,D2+,D3h
ot+,D3cold+)
                Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-

What makes me wondering is the attached output of mii-diag and
8139-diag, can somebody tell me why the values are non standard and
why the flow control is disabled?

Greetings,

Nico
