Looks like IRQ sharing is still in the play. Yesterday, I purchased a pair of used 3C905TXs, replaced the RTL 8139 by the 3C905, and got complaints by the 3C905 about "eth0: Interrupt posted but not delivered -- IRQ blocked by another device?" (Linux 2.2.19). The other card on the same IRQ is a Brooktree 878. I then swapped the Bt878 and the 3C900 (not 3C905!) and got no more complaints, now, the Bt878 can keep its IRQ to itself, and the two 3Com cards share the IRQ. Seems both NICs are fine. TV is also fine. Strange. Might the BT 878 PCI AND the NVidia AGP card be the culprits? Cheers, Matthias
