Hi,
Just a thought, are you using the XT-PIC mode of IRQ address (old style) on the new IO-APIC version that Kernel 2.6.x supports?
I found with my Intel 537 modem that it would hang a machine using XT-PIC (admittedly it was IRQ sharing with all the other crap in the machine) but using IO-APIC things work better.
IO-APIC should be supported on modern P4 boards, not sure about other processors. My Duron 700 supoorts IO-APIC but the board doesn't.
It's one of the kernel build options.
The development machine on which I'm doing this testing has a VIA Apollo Pro+ chipsetted motherboard, Intel PIII-400 processor, so no true APIC anyway. Also, I was using Linux kernel 2.4.20 without APIC installed there, either, but just to test (and since upgrading is so fun anyway) I upgraded to 2.6.7-rc1 and wound up with essentially same problem (module load errors with one PCI configuration, lockups with another).
I'm guessing, however, that the i537 that you are using is not an i537EP, which is what I have. I'd suspect that the "i537" that you have actually uses an MD3200 chipset on it. The i537EP has an FA82537EP chipset. Such a small model name change indicates a relatively large hardware change, apparently.
Thanks.
Lee. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
