Can you try 2.4.0? Are you using the 3c59x ethernet driver? I've got the same problem on one of my machines, (see message with subject "2.4.1-pre10 -> 2.4.1 klogd at 100% CPU ; 2.4.0 OK") and the last thing that is logged is a message from the 3c59x ethernet driver. I'm doing a bit more digging to see what changed in the driver between revisions. /proc/pci lists my 3c905B as this: 3Com Corporation 3c905B 100BaseTX [Cyclone] (rev 48) -Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
