when upgrading from 1.99.4 to 1.99.5 and .6, this happens :
May 21 14:16:27 grobbebol linux: eth0: ni6510 found at 0x360, IRQ 12 DMA 5. May 21 14:16:27 grobbebol linux: eth0: unable to alloc receive-memory in lower 16MB!
May 21 14:17:33 grobbebol sendmail[146]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(root): cannot lockf(/etc/aliases.dir, fd=5, type=1, omode=37777777777, euid=0): Device or resource busy
the latter message is repeated during the OS run.
I have traced it back to the switch from 1.99.4 --> 1.99.5. previous kernels don't have the lockf message and NI6510 failure.; I also checked 1.99.6 which operates like 1.99.5 in this respect.
I hope it has value to the kernel developers. -- Roeland Th. Jansen <bengel@xs4all.nl> (2:2802/105.1)
