Digium's site now lists the Dell 1850 as a potential problem server,
as it uses the intel ee1000 Ethernet chipset (as do a majority of
servers in the market!).
To my knowledge, ALL dell servers with Gigabit interfaces now use the
same chipset. Does this mean the Digium cards can't be used in Dell
servers unless you disable the onboard ethernet?
I don't want to disable the onboard interface, as I use the IPMI
management facility for lights-out management. I have a 2850 that
doesn't have any audio problems (the reason that I contacted Digium
in the first place), so I'm wondering if Digium are simply guessing
at problems.
Does anyone know anything specific about the supposed
incompatibilities with the ee1000 kernel module?
I am not sure where you got that chipset reference but all our PowerEdge
1850s come with:
Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82541GI/PI Gigabit Ethernet Controller
...and they work fine with the TE410.
There seems to be an ever-growing list of situations where you can't
use the Digium cards. This is a concern to me.
