Hi,
I've upgraded the Linux kernel on my Efika to 2.6.31, using the same configuration file of the 2.6.30 I have used since now.

The interface appears as eth0 after boot, but neither packets are transmitted nor received. I see there have been some reworking of the driver, but I can't manage to make it work.

Any clues?

It seems to be the same problem I experienced few days ago --- after rebooting to the new kernel, the ethernet didn't work. It showed up in /sbin/ip, but the link was down and cold dead. I solved it by using corsair's device tree supplement and rebooting. Networking works fine since then, but I don't know whether it was solved by the efika.forth or by the reboot ^_^.
Unfortunately, I still haven't found a solution to the other problem, which was the biggest reason for updating the DTS: sound. I'll try some more tricks and will eventually make a post about it.

you should not need Efika DTS on a linux kernel >= 2.6.31.x . Btw it's a great forth script to quickly understand how it works to solve your own special needs.

Ethernet here works fine but still unable to get audio.
