From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 4.0) Interrupt handler not syncing Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.reboot - pump running - masq enabled - brought up ipchains manually after network started due to script issue needing ip addy. 2.login - wife's account 3.ping my.work.machine.gov - aiee.... panic!!! happened at least twice. I had one other crash this week (installed RH 7.1 on tuesday - today friday)- however didn't check it out. Actual Results: System crashed with above output. First time just powered off/on force check ok. Second time power off/on had to run fsck / manually. Last time power off/on force check ok. SInce then did interactive setup and did not bring up ipchains or eth0. Should be noted that I had just compiled perl 5.6.1 and tried to install Bundle::LWP with perl -mCPAN -e shell ... some install errors on module Net:FTP Also had just ran tripwire. Then I crashed for the night. Tried to telnet home from work the next day and couldn't called wife. She logged in and tried to ping my machine and this produced the error. Same error Expected Results: Dunno .... came here instead! Enabled dhcp and ipchains on old 486dx 33 with Debian potato (2.2) never dies! but not a 10/100 card.

In interrupt handler This computer is a old HP PII233 with 2 new Linksys 10/100 LNE100TX cards, a new generic 40 X cdrom, a 30 GB WD 5400 new harddrive and an old floppy.
Just happened again... I brought up pan and was attempting to go to news- reader. eth1 died (I had disabled eth0). I tried to bring up eth1 and the system locked up.
Can you give the output of "lspci" so we know exactly what networkcard it is?
I can't do it from redhat but.... with mandrake it is: They are linksys Model LNE100TX Version 4 (I have two of them) The drivers wouldn't compile under 2.4 and RD 7.0 has corrupted libs as you know, so I was outta luck and installed mandrake 7.2, compiled the drivers and everything works great! 00:06.0 Ethernet controller: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0985 (rev 11) Subsystem: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0574 Flags: bus master, fast Back2Back, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 I/O ports at f800 Memory at fedffc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) Capabilities: <available only to root> 00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0985 (rev 11) Subsystem: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0574 Flags: bus master, fast Back2Back, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 10 I/O ports at f400 Memory at fedff800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) Capabilities: <available only to root>
Oh ya, I forgot to mention that this happened all the time (very reproducable). And I did notice that eth0 or eth1 always went down just prior to the crash. ifconfig showed one or the other down by itself just prior to crash..... good luck!
