From edba2a1fefc6296bc527754dee1c72a625bb675a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Bogendoerfer Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2008 00:21:47 -0800 Subject: [METH]: Fix MAC address handling. meth didn't set a valid mac address during probing, but later during open. Newer kernel refuse to open device with 00:00:00:00:00:00 as mac address -> dead ethernet. This patch sets the mac address in the probe function and uses only the mac address from the netdevice struct when setting up the hardware. Signed-off-by: Thomas Bogendoerfer Signed-off-by: David S.
