Hi, I have installed a ethernet board 3com905B-TXNM on an ASUS P3B-F motherboard. When I boot under Win98 there is no problem, the board is well recognised and works fine. When I boot under RedHat 6.0 there is a trouble: the board is recognized , but the IRQ is set to 0: From dmesg: eth0: 3Com 3c905B Cyclone 100baseTx at 0xd000, 00:50:04:a8:ff:3e, IRQ 0 *** Warning: IRQ 0 is unlikely to work! *** when I try to set up the interface with ifconfig eth0 up, I get the message: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Ressource temporarly not aviable I tried in the BIOS setup to force to IRQ 11 the PCI slot where the board is installed, it didn't solve the problem. Can anyone help me ? Thanks.
