Hi I was having problems with an Intel Ether Express card on kernel 2.0.35 which would crash the system, and require a hard reboot. If I ran it in 16 bit mode, the mesage which would fill the screen and lock the system was: "eth0: Rx frame at 2d20 corrupted status 8cf7, cmd alff, next 6aee, pbuf a380, len 3031" If I ran it in 8 bit mode, the message was: "eth0: CU wedged, status 0240 0000, resetting..." I upgraded the kernel, to 2.2.6 and I am pleased that the system does not crash, however during ftp, I get the following messages: eth0: FOF or F not set on received buffer (0000) eth0: FOF or F not set on received buffer (8000) ...REPEATED 6 more times... eth0: tx interupt but no status eth0: CU wdged, status 0040 0000, resetting eth0: i82586 reset timed out, kicking... ...REPEATED 4 more times... eth0: i82586 not responding, giving up. It does not lockup the system, but after this, I must reboot to allow the card to be used again. In 8 bit mode, it operates so slow, that I have been unable to test whether it works. It is probably worth noting that it worked on kernel 2.0.35 before I upgraded the processor. It was a Compaq Prolinea 4/25s (486 25Mhz). I added an Evergreen 486 Upgrade (133 AMD processor). If I remove the processor and try it again it will work fine (or did on 2.0.35). Also, I have swapped the drive with a Windows 3.11 that I had lying arround (how's that for a step backward). By doing this, I was able to ftp to my hearts content, with no problems from the card. I would like to get this working, and will provide what ever details that might be of help.
