Description

I got GNOME working by not initializing my ethernet card until GNOME started. This lockup might be related to the 3com ethernet card (3com vortex boomerang PCI) I am having trouble logging into my system from even a terminal. So SSH might be involved. (My guess) The problem is caused by the driver for the vortex boomerang card. The mailer, GNOME and mozilla browser locking up were caused by the ethernet card faulty driver. Refer to bug 104793 for continuation of problem resolution. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=104793 The interaction between mozilla and a faulty NIC driver is a bug, this probably has frustrated others. I took out the 3com card that was causing the cable unplugged problem. The Writing on the card is printed as below. EtherLink XL PCI 3C900B-TPO 03-0147-000 REV-A I'll use this removed card in a Win2000 machine that needs different interrupts (This one is on IRQ 10 and the replacement one is IRQ 11) Hopefully, the driver will be fixed. With no action on the bug, I figured you'd see this on "bug closing day". It is sad that the compatibility for this driver is broken now. That card was my first Red Hat on the net with realplayer and Netscape. (4 series) on RHL 5.2. The memories. Jim |
