Oops! Sorry.
Hi Alan,
This patch makes the 2.4 starfire driver essentially identical to the
version you added to 2.2.19pre. In addition, it also includes Manfred
Spraul's fixes (for problems which, although real, are very unlikely to
matter in real life).
Please apply.
Thanks,

feature which can avoid complexity and pain in userspace programs.
Unfortunately, it seems to be very buggy. Here are two buggy scenarios.

heavily modifed VA kernel based on 2.2.18. Is there a kernel which is
believed to be a known good kernel? (both 2.2.x and 2.4.x)
I've not seen the problem on unmodified 2.2.18. The 2.2.17/18 VM does have
its problems but not these. 2.2.19pre3 and higher have the Andrea VM fixes which

We have a problem here that make the filesystem crash during big files
transfer (1M). It only happens with kernel 2.4.x ; with 2.2.18, it is
very stable and fast.
I don't believe IBM have provided an 'official' 2.4 patch set for the serveraid
yet so there may be bugs lurking.
I should add

This breaks linux-2.4.2-pre3/arch/i386/boot/Makefile. I have attached
the fix below. I am running a kernel built with this updated Makefile.
There's a fix in -ac
Would this mean that the driver/card already were in full-duplex? That
would explain me seeing way too many collisions on that old hub (which
obviously doesn't support full-duplex).
Most likely it means they were set to autonegotiate

Couldn't figure out why my el-lame-o testbox was generating random I/O
errors on large writes. I first suspected another booger cut loose in
the disk and generated the typical storm of errors since it has some
hundred or so bad

experience maybe. telnet works just fine. a copy would end in a _very_
slow transfer. and if I say slow, I mean a few kbytes/sec. depends on
the number of colls as well.
besides, what gains are
