With both 2.3.18ac10 and 2.2.12 kernels I am unable to use the card.
The same card works for me on an intel C440gx+ motherboard with an
earlier 2.2.12 kernel.
This quad xeon box seems to work properly with a standard tulip card.
The other hardware in the machine is a symbios chipset ultra wide scsi
card and a Mylex extremeraid 1100 card (removed for these tests ...
though this card may prevent me from using a 2.3.x kernel).
The kernel on the working c440gx board assigns unique IRQs to each port
of the quad ethernet card. The kernels on the megaplex have always been
assigning the same IRQ to each port.
My goal is to run beowulf style channel bonding using 2-4 ports. This
is working nicely for me with the c440gx box mentioned above.
One kernel message of interest that occurs with networking attempts is
this...
kernel: eth0: Interrupt blocked, status 00009001/00009001.
