Bug#403183: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686: Netgear FA410TX PCMCIA network card (NE2000 compatible) IRQ problems



Subject: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686: Netgear FA410TX PCMCIA network card (NE2000 compatible) IRQ problems
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686
Version: 2.6.18-7
Severity: normal

I've got a laptop on which I use a PCMCIA network card (Netgear
FA410TX), which has a ne2000 driver.

When laptop is booted with card in, there are watchdog events and
network connectivity is dropped and resume several times a minute
(reports in enclosed dmesg show these watchdog events).

If the card is ejected and then put back in, I get strange backtrace
dumps after a "IRQ handler type mismatch for IRQ" message (see dmesg
also), but after that, the card works fine, without dropping/resuming
the network connectivity.

This tends to be quite annoying, and didn't occur in 2.6.8 AFAI recall.

Hope this helps
