It seems every now and then a report pops up that the  Sequoia  board
(or  now on equivalent hardware) has problems connecting to a Gigabit
capable network interface. In our case,  it's  when  the  Sequoia  is
attached to a HP Procurve switch.

AMCC Technical Support was not able  to  reproduce  the  problem,  so
officially it does not exist.

Could you please let me know which exact network card you  are  using
on  your PC, and which Linux distro / lenrel version / driver version
you are running on it?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
