Re: ep0 Interrupt Storm, 3Com EtherLink III (PnP)

ice will cause it to re-assert the interrupt request. I've also seen it when a device configured for polling (and hence without an installed interrupt handler) decides to raise an interrupt and gets upset at the interrupt not being handled. -- Peter Jeremy ___
