SubjectOops in 2.4.17 with Tulip driver
Hi,

I'm using kernel 2.4.17 from kernel.org, patched to use the preemptive +
low latency features. I have never had I problem until I have started to
use the eth0 which is detected as:

kernel: eth0: Lite-On 82c168 PNIC rev 32 at 0xa800, 00:C0:F0:56:CE:74,
IRQ 10.

I think it is called LNE 100tx under windows, at least these are the
drivers I use for it.

After using it for 3-4 hours it locks my machine, but this is random,
sometimes it happens soon. I have seen various messages in
/var/log/messages:

Apr 22 18:53:26 quakers kernel: ethereal uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET)
Apr 22 18:54:02 quakers kernel: eth0: Promiscuous mode enabled.
Apr 22 18:54:02 quakers kernel: device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
Apr 22 18:59:53 quakers kernel: eth0: Promiscuous mode enabled.
Apr 22 18:59:53 quakers kernel: device eth0 left promiscuous mode
<more last 2 lines messages>
<CRASH>

After the reboot, with no X and no programs other than a shell:

Apr 22 19:28:49 quakers kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
Apr 22 19:29:25 quakers last message repeated 3 times
< CRASH>

And here is the Oops I received:

This time only the keyboard was blocked, so I could use the mouse to
close XWindows.

This happened also a long time ago with kernel 2.4.4, and I have'nt used
the card since then. Here is the old log:

The current machine is:
Linux llanero 2.4.17 #9 Mon Apr 15 22:02:35 CEST 2002 i686 unknown

Hope this helps you enhance the tulip driver.

If you need any other info please tell me.

I suppose that this is not a hardware problem since I use it under
windows with no problems for more than 6 hours. Also, searching google,
this seems to be a problem solved in some tulip driver available for 2.2
but not for 2.4. I can search google again if needed.

Please CC me as I'm not subscribed.

Thanks.
