If you can not upgrade the kernel, I can not do anything for you since
several fixes went in after 2.6.11-rc1-mm1.

Regarding your r8169 issue, I suggest:
1) download linux kernel 2.6.12-rc1
2) apply on top of it:
   
http://www.fr.zoreil.com/linux/kernel/2.6.x/2.6.11/r8169/patches/r8169-570.patch
3) avoid the proprietary tainting module

Kernel panic - r8169 on 2.6.11-rc1-mm1

2005-03-19 Thread Cameron Harris
Every time i try to use eth1 which is r8169, i get a kernel panic, but
on the actual use of it, not the configuring it.

e.g.
laptop ~ # ifconfig eth1 up 192.168.1.1

laptop ~ # ping 192.168.1.2

PING 192.168.1.2 (192.168.1.2) 56(84) bytes of data.

 <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt

I never had time to write down the whole stack trace (and there was no
core file created)
This driver used to work in a previous kernel version (but it did get
IRQ #x nobody cared messages, usually when there was some sort of a
disconnection of my ethernet cable for whatever reason). This is
always reproducable.

I would try a newer kernel, but the command line options for
specifying the framebuffer settings seems to have changed in the
latest kernel and i haven't had enough time to work out how to specify
it.
