Stephen, this is your driver. Problem is caused by the ring parameter changes being unable to allocate enough memory. The driver doesn't return an error, leaves the device up, and generally goes down hill from there... patch submitted to jeff as part of 0.13 (hopefully for 2.6.15) If it's small enough, could you also submit it for 2.6.14.5? |
