Hi, I have a dual pentium processor box with 3com595 ethernet card. Try as I might I couldn't get my newly installed 2.2.14 kernel to connect to the internet.
I just read in one of the Ethernet-HOWTO files that the ethernet card driver ie. 3c59x.c must have the 'spin_lock' function to implement arbitration between the dual processors. Unfortunately, the 3c59x.c doesn't have such a 'spin_lock' function, even in the the newest version that I downloaded from http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html However, I did find 'spin_lock' in 3c501,3c507,3c509 drivers $ grep spin_lock 3c*.c .. 3c509.c: spin_lock(&lp->lock); 3c509.c: spin_lock(&lp->lock); Any suggestions... Thanks Rajesh
