VRRP and media sense/link state on old drivers

[Colin Alston]

Hi

Been having some problems with freevrrpd on ed and lnc cards. It seems to
"work" on the rl0 cards, but otherwise I get the following.

Dec  9 20:32:58 spike freevrrpd[35627]: launching daemon in background mode
Dec  9 20:32:58 spike freevrrpd[35628]: initializing threads and all VRID

Dec  9 20:32:59 spike freevrrpd[35628]: interface ed0 is faulty, deactivated
from VRRP VRIDs
Dec  9 20:33:00 spike freevrrpd[35628]: cannot do ioctl, intertface is
faulty: Invalid argument

Pretty much the same with lnc.

Is there a way around this? Not so fun to replace all the cards :-/
(although they could probably do with it) I tried using it through the vlan
device on the ed and lnc cards but that did nothing, just got the same
error.
