Hi Octave, Can I use this file ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/8139too.c-2.4-0.9.27 to put in my local Linux 2.6 test11 to build and run? Thanks Regards Leigh -----Original Message----- From: linux-net-owner@vger.kernel.org [mailto:linux-net-owner@vger.kernel.org]On Behalf Of Octave Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2003 9:51 AM To: Stephen Hemminger; Jeff Garzik Cc: netdev@oss.sgi.com; linux-net@vger.kernel.org Subject: NAPI 8139too.c for 2.4.23 Stephen, I get your patch from http://lwn.net/Articles/54815/ for 2.6.X and I rewrote it for 2.4.23. Tested with 2.4.23 on high load servers. I have no more "Too much work at interrupt". I dropped it on ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/8139too.c-2.4-0.9.27 Hope it helps.
