We have had serious trouble with interrupts on an SMP system under
2.0.32. The cards come under the 3c59x driver. Ultimately, we couldn't
achieve stability until we turned off the second CPU in the
BIOS...simply switching to a mono-processing kernel didn't much help. We
have quite a similar system to Matthias'.
