I certainly have: qeth, which is the HiperSockets/OSA driver. So obviously Debian isn't going to support it. And since it's Debian, and not SuSE, Turbo, or Red Hat, I suspect IBM doesn't care. I have not yet even heard acknowledgment of my concern that in 2.4.17, qeth seems to require NETDEV_FASTROUTE, which makes the whole prospect of doing multi-tiered gated HiperSockets networks untenable. Since I have those (under 2.4.7) running at customer sites, this is a Scary Thing. No, more what I was looking for was, "How do I read this" ? I figure I can at least, perhaps, determine whether it's an interaction between netfilter, which is still built into the kernel (although I'm not using it) and qeth, or something else. I'm going to try to get some space on a faster box so that I can test various configuration options a little more speedily.
