X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.1 i686) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: Serverworks HE quad Xeon: strange network lockups Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org We just got a SuperMicro S2QE6 which is a quad Xeon motherboard using the Serverworks HE chipset. It has onboard ethernet (Intel 82559). After installing Redhat 6.2 the Ethernet stopped working with the message "eth0: card reports no resources" >>From what I have seen there is nothing that unusual with this and the 82559. What is strange is that the network starts working again if you type something on the keyboard. This is 100% repeatable -- don't type on the keyboard and the ethernet freezes up with the no resources message in a few minutes. Touch the keyboard and it starts working again immediately. I'm going to update the kernel and see if that fixes the issue but it struck me as a rather unusual problem. Regards Emil Briggs
