guys,
having a strange problem since upgrading to -STABLE. this has happened
several times over the past 5 days. when running something network
intensive, like a large ftp or cvsup, or even setting the machines net
card into promiscuous mode, my machine completely locks up. no response
from the keyboard, mouse, ping, nothing. after a while, the machine
starts responding again. several times i have popped out my pcmcia card
(linksys wpc11 v3.0) and the machine returned to life. /var/log/messages
is filled with the errors below. i saw a related post on the list that
this is a known issue. however, i last built my kernel on May 25th, is
there anything new in the pipeline that might help solve this problem??
i've included some information below that might be useful, let me know if
anything else is needed. thanks!
jason
ps i appologize for the cross post, wasn't sure where to send this one.
