I've seen frequent lockups with an ES1371. Someone on l-k mentioned last
week that this is a known hardware issue with ES1371, but pinging the box
tends to cure the problem?
(Aside: I tried this cure, and it didn't work. However, I have the ES1371
on a higher priority IRQ than eth0. In fact, Murphy configured my
interrupts to give the ES1371 the highest priority IRQ allocated...)
The card locks the system up, but pinging the box [thus generating IRQs]
clears it sometimes - but not on a system with eth0 < ES1371. Anyone shed
any more light on this??
