From c35ca399e09828f3f6b40c0007a95a6582d90347 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2006 21:13:17 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] b44: fix laptop carrier detect On my laptop, the b44 device is created and the carrier state defaults to ON when created by alloc_etherdev. This means tools like NetworkManager see the carrier as On and try and bring the device up. The correct thing to do is mark the carrier as Off when device is created.
