Subject: NIC irq nobody cared ? virtual to  physical  and DMA questions
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2005 21:28:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <745843498.20051129212851@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello List,

This time the questions are different.

Given the following output could anyone please tell me what is wrong ?
In explicit what does that mysterious "nobody cared" message mean?
And another stupid question: should DMA for a network card be enabled before or maybe
_after_ interrupts get enabled? And... how to convert virtual address
to physical one?
