I'm running kernel 2.4.19 on a system with a 3com 3c595 NIC, using the
3c59x module. The system will run as normal for a period of time
(generally a pretty long period of time, e.g. 30 days or so) before I
will get an Oops regarding this module. After the oops however, the
system will generally run as expected, although in several cases the NIC
has been unresponsive following this.
Also on another note, I have not been able to get this card to run at
100mbps no matter what I try. It will insist on running only at 10mbps
half duplex (This is on a 100mbps network).
Any ideas? Is this a problem with the 3c59x module itself?
Here is the relevant portion of my dmesg:
3c59x: Donald Becker and others. www.scyld.com/network/vortex.html
