    Linux 2.4.3, Debian Woody. 2.4.2 works without problems. However, in
    2.4.3, pcnet32 loads, gives an error message:

    Mar 30 18:45:09 obsidian kernel: pcnet32_probe_pci: found device

    Though it does still load.

    However, the interface does not come up. (DHCP doesn't work, can't even
    assign a manual address).

    Worse, I get multiple entries for the driver in /proc/interrupts. Each
    time I attempt to bring the interface up another is added so I have:

      5: 11276 11416 IO-APIC-level aic7xxx, PCnet/FAST 79C971,
    PCnet/FAST 79C971, PCnet/FAST 79C971

    When I attempt to rmmod the driver, even if there is only one, I get a
    Kernel OOPS (in the interrupt handler, so it wasn't written
    anywhere). I'll attempt to copy it down by hand and post to the list in a
    bit.
