#251 Multicast broken on xirc2ps_cs

[Diego Santa Cruz]

I have a Xircom CreditCard Ethernet 10/100+ Modem 56
PCMCIA card (CEM56-100), which uses the xirc2ps_cs driver.

I just tried a multicast application and realized that
multicast is broken on this card. I don't receive any
multicast traffic unless I set the ALLMULTI flag on the
interface.

I'm running a RedHat installation with kernel 2.4.18-4
and pcmcia-cs 3.1.27-10 (both RedHat's RPMs). More info
at http://ltswww.epfl.ch/~dsanta/resources/hp4150-linux.

If any other info is required please ask.

Just confirming the same problem on Fedora Core 2.
Multicast is not received unless I put the card into
promiscuous mode (e.g. running Ethereal to debug why
multicast doesn't work makes it work:-)

RPM version is 3.2.7-1.5. Kernel 2.6.6

Confirmed by swapping a xircom and 3com card between two
laptops and the problem moves.
