Re: 3com 905c
Hi! The thing is that I've never switched any hardware and the kernel is the same. I didnt have these errors before. However, /proc/pci >> Bus 0, device 11, function 0: Ethernet controller: 3Com 3C905B 100bTX (rev 48). Medium devsel. IRQ 9. Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=10.Max Lat=10. I/O at 0x6100 [0x6101].

I'm not sure if this applies to your particular problem, but from my experience with 3com cards on old mainboards... Have you had a look at the PCI bus? Is the mainboard's bus compatible with the requirements of this card, e.g. does it say "no bursts" somewhere"? You could easily figure that out with 'cat /proc/pci', it should tell you enough about the system.

3com 905c
G'day ISPers! I have a non-SMP debian system running some standard apps. like Apache, Wuftpd, qmail, openssh... The hardware of the machine is basic, p166mhz w/ 128Mb RAM, five SCSI-disks, 3c905b, some PCI videocard. However! The kernel has started to print this error... The thing is, the machine wont loose network-connection, stability or anything - its just stable. This is just annoying. eth0: Too much work in interrupt, status e401. Driver for the 905 card is 3c59x.c ; Any ideas? -- Christofer, -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
