I installed the kernel update today on four different machines. Ihaven't seen the kernel oops on the i686 boxes, but I am experiencing huge problems. 1. On an SMP system(Dell PE 2650, Dual P4 2.6Ghz), the network connectivity to two of them(tg3) is extrememly slow and is dropping packets left and right. I could barely get into the machines to changethe grub.conf back to the previous release and reboot. 2. On one of the SMP systems, NIS stopped working(maybe due to the network problems?. 3. On a PIII 850Mhz, there are no problems with the intel 10/100 adaptors and the system seems to be running fine.Can I provide any other feedback? I had a similar problem with the kernel that came out with the initial Test 2 release. It was corrected in the first kernel update to Test 2.
