Hi
I have an IBM 300 GL model 6563 (desktop PIII 600) which run fine till
yesterday with RH70, mdk80, mdk81 and winnt4.
I just installed the brand new rh72 on it and my network card doesn't work
any more (smc 8432t with dec tulip 21014 chipset, but also tried with an
accton 1207d-tx with the same result). it's not a hardware problem.
RH72 works at office on an eSeries 230 and on some other computers i have.
it's not a distro/media problem.
I think it's some weird and obscure combination of new pci bus coding and
hardware configuration which makes this look like an IRQ conflict or
something like that. the symptom is as usual in this case : every thing is
ok on a software point of view (ifconfig ok), but it actually just doesn't
receive any packet (TX counter increases but RX stays at 0)
thanks for any information and clue,

Bien sûr que je suis perfectionniste !
Mais ne pourrais-je pas l'être mieux ?
