Hi All.
I have some trouble with my pcmcia networking.
I'm Running woody with a self copiled 2.4.20 vanilla kernel and pcmcia modules
from the kernel and not from pcmcia-source package.
what happens when I start pcmcia is that everything works but I keep getting
eth0: Interupt(s) dropped !
cat /proc/interrupts gives me:
CPU0
0: 70238 XT-PIC timer
1: 2144 XT-PIC keyboard
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
8: 3 XT-PIC rtc
10: 8 XT-PIC Texas Instruments PCI1225, Texas Instruments
PCI1225 (#2)
12: 4299 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse
14: 13846 XT-PIC ide0
NMI: 0
LOC: 0
ERR: 0
lsmod gives me this:
Module Size Used by Not tainted
pcnet_cs 10816 1
8390 5904 0 [pcnet_cs]
ds 6408 2 [pcnet_cs]
yenta_socket 8704 2
pcmcia_core 32992 0 [pcnet_cs ds yenta_socket]
rtc 5692 0 (unused)
soundcore 3460 0 (autoclean)
and when I insert the pcmcia card it tells me it uses IRQ 0
I tried it with the pcmcia-source modules with i86395 instead of yenta_socket
and it then uses IRQ 3 without dropping interrupts.
The card is a noname pcnet_cs 10mbit ne2000 which works.
just those messages on the console are kind of annoying.
so how can I tell the card to use IRQ 3 ?
for reasons of simplicity I would prefer to stay with the kernel modules.
Thanks for any hints
