Hallo Mr Morton,
I also upgraded my machine to 2.4.0test9 and have the same problems. Our
network is a fully switched 100MBit Full-Duplex Network. All machines are
connected to a cisco catalyst 5000.
My machine is an ASUS P2B-S with 128MB RAM and a Pentium II 400MHz.
(the report data is generated from 2.4.0-test7 but you can truely believe
it's the same with 2.4.0-test9)
uname -a :
Linux reboot 2.4.0-test7 #2 Mon Okt 9 15:09:12 CEST 2000 i686 unknown
The card banner on kernel-bootup looks like this:
