Hi and HELP
I am running RH4.0 on 2 100Mhz Pentium machines these have the new 3COM
bommerang netcard (3c900 series).
I installede them with an other card. The build a kernel which supported
the 3c59x netcard, but before i compiled the kernel I got the 3c59x.c file
from the net, which should support the 3c900 cards.
But now both of the machines is randomly loosing the connections to the
network.
The machines is running as news-servers so there is ALOT of net-traffic.
When i boot the machine i get the following messages in my logs:
==========================================================
kernel: eth0: vortex_open() irq 11 media status 8822.
kernel: eth0: Media selection timer tick happened, MII.
kernel: eth0: Media MII is has no indication, 8822.
kernel: eth0: Media selection timer finished, MII.
kernel: eth0: Transmitter access conflict.
==========================================================
And this messages is being printed to stderr all the time:
eth0: Transmitter access conflict.
I also have another machine with the same setup, but this is my own, so
there is not the same amount of net-traffic. This machine NEVER goes down,
except when i screw up :-)
Any help is appreciated...
