Has anybody got the same issue with non Dell machines?
I am running 2.4.16 on a Compaq proliant ML 370 without problems (machine has been up for 2+ days with the new kernels, though). Trafic is not very high.
The driver is built into the kernel.
/proc/pci shows
Bus 0, device 2, function 0: Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 8). IRQ 5. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=56. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xc4fff000 [0xc4ffffff]. I/O at 0x2400 [0x243f]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xc4e00000 [0xc4efffff].
