I won't say for sure, but I'm fairly certain he does. Most of his drivers got a "slightly larger than normal MTU" pass-over a while ago. I objected to the eepro100 patch, because all it did was change one magic number to another, in the configuration data. I had absolutely no basis for evaluation other than "I hope it works", so it was rejected. If someone wants to look at his eepro100 and merge in new changes (vlan or otherwise), that'd be great. His tulip MTU (aka vlan) changes also want pulling into mainline kernel, since his changes are _much_ better than the tulip vlan patch floating around. Jeff
