Hi List,

I've been having some problems with intel etherpro 100 cards on my
cluster. 

the nodes are 1ghz athlons 64meg pc133 on a asus a7pro mb. ibm 10.2 gig
drives

after a reboot of the nodes, and sometimes during a run the card reports
no rx buffers or resources.

from the logs

eepro100.c:v1.09j-t 9/29/99 Donald Becker

Has anyone else seen this problem or can explain to me what might be going
on. after rebooting this node by hand it came up ok. This problem occoured
on 7/64 nodes.
