Hi
We have a problem with IBM Netfinity 7000M10, 3COM 905B Network card and
linux smp.
We have a Netfinity 7000M10 with 4 Xeon and 768Mo RAM under Redhat 6.0.
It works fine with 2.2.4-SMP if the kernel is on a floppy disk.
However we have not been able to use any network card we have (3com 900,
3com 905B
and HP J2585A). Those cards run well with 2.2.4 if not compiled with
SMP.
The kernel 2.2.5-15 runs fine without SMP but a kernl panic happens when
at boot
it tries to access the 3com card. We also tried 2.0.36 but it was not
better.
With the 2.2.4SMP kernel we have this error message :
Jun 4 13:52:27 localhost kernel: eth0: transmit timed out, tx_status 00
status
e281.
Jun 4 13:52:27 localhost kernel: eth0: Interrupt posted but not
delivered -- IR
