The machine has an ISA ne2k clone, and it is a non SMP kernel which I've
compiled with egcs 1.03 and -O2 (which works fine I might add on my other
machines here). One other detail I neglected to mention was that I
enabled ppp deflate compression, maybe this is the culprit? I have a
2.1.125 machine on the other end of the ppp link with ppp deflate enabled
also. I could try again with the deflate line commented out of the
/etc/ppp/options file if this may help? However I must note that I've
been using ppp deflate successfully for a while.
Cheers,
Dave.
