The Apple Thunderbolt ethernet device is already listed in the driver, but not hooked up in the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). This fixes that and allows it to work properly.

Good idea. What does ethtool say when you let it operate on that device? Regards Oliver -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org

I suggest to open a bugzilla for all missing patches to support MacBook. Then you can fill References field, too.

That's going to be a bunch of patches, given that it doesn't quite work properly even with 3.6-rc5 yet... greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
