 same here with an eepro100 inside a IBM Thinkpad570. Happened with
2.4.6-ac2. Since then I apply the appended patch after installing "-ac"
stuff. This completely disables power state handling for the device. Not
very clean, but I do not care in this particular case. It probably shows
a more principal issue with the eepro100. Kai - did you look deeper into
the issue?
