Hi all, Can please someone tell me if there are known issues with the beige G3 on-board Ethernet and SuSE 6.4 (kernel 2.2.14)? Better yet, where can I look for further info/docs? My problem is that under certain circumstances (for example nmap'ing that interface from another computer -but not every time-, sometimes just using the interface) the eth0 stops working, and then the computer often freezes shortly after and auto-restarts in a few minutes (-??- with dirty filesystem). No logs at all, even with tail -f /var/log/messages. I've also tried with another G3: same behaviour. The problem does not appear if I do the same tests on eth1 (Apple Fast Ethernet card -DEC chip 21140-, or Intel Pro100+), or if I use a blue/white G3 configured the same way. This is the setup (test machine; in production the services will be splitted on two computers): - G3/233, 192MB RAM (used two computers: same results), with a Apple Fast Ethernet PCI Card and/or a Intel EtherExpress Pro100+ PCI card. - SuSE 6.4 with current patches, kernel 2.2.14 - SuSEfirewall installed and working (NAT for internal LAN, blocking unused ports on internet interface) - postfix 1999/12/31-pl13 - cyrus imapd 1.6.24 (with cyrus sasl 1.5.24) - squid 2.3 stable4 + patches - *not* running telnet, ftp, bind, nscd, ssh, identd, http, portmap, nfs etc. etc. (only inetd) If I only use the two PCI cards (leaving on-board Ethernet disabled), everything is (seems to be...) fine: the G3 has just survived 7 consecutive nmap scans. After two weeks of tests I'm completely stuck (tried everything I know and looked through a lot of docs; also installed NetDrivers-2.1.6 from www.scyld.com, although I remember that on-board Ethernet support is compiled in the kernel)... any clues? thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post nicola
