Donald Becker's most recent version hasn't been forward-ported to 2.4 and the 2.2.17 drivers won't compile either. The SMC card DOES work in non-SMP machines. So...I'm putting in a 3com905 until this gets fixed. Don said that locking was broken in the 1.1.5 release. The last SMP kernel that ran with the SMC was 2.2.17 -- it's been broke since (i.e. 2.2.18 does'nt work either -- that's where 1.1.5 was introduced). ________________________________________ Michael D.
