Hi, 600mhz celery 2.2.18 vanilla, intel 815EE mobo, onboard eepro100 and pci 3com 905b. Happens when traffic is high to the eepro. FWIW, the 3c905 (3c59x module) also reports 'too much work in interrupt' but it did not hang like the eepro100, and by adding max_interrupt_work=40 with modprobe, that also solved the warnings. But the intel card actually hangs after it shows those warnings, so we thought it was a problem. messages:Jan 4 09:01:44 axiom1 kernel: eepro100.c:v1.09j-t 9/29/99 Donald Becker http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/eepro100.html Jan 4 09:01:44 axiom1 kernel: eepro100.c: $Revision: 1.20.2.10 $ 2000/05/31 Modified by Andrey V.
