Hello
I was setting a notebook up to a network using rh7.
The card is a 3com 3CXFE575CT. PCMCIA detected and
configured it with the 3c575 driver. I used
'netconfig' to set the notebook up for dhcp.
It worked for about 1min. Then the screen kept
flashing with errors of something like 'too much work
.. pci bus'. I typed 'ifconfig eth0 down' to take it
off the network. The errors stopped.
Whenever I would try to put it back on the network, it
started up with the same errors.
I rand 'cardctl eject' and took the card out to read
the model # and go on 3coms site. When i put the card
back in, i ran 'cardctl reset' thinking thats the
right way to get the card recognized again.
After about 1min the system completely locked up. And
whenever I reboot and it detects the card, it will
lock up.
Ive searched google and found some old patches for the
3c373 and 2.3 kernel, so I'm guessing I need to update
for the problem to be fixed. Is this right? or is
there something else I can do to get the system back
in working condition and on a network w/o errors.
Thank you.
