Re: eepro100 problems in 2.4.0

[Micah Gorrell]

Because of the problems we where having we are no longer using the machine
with 3 nics.  We are now using a machine with just one and it is going live
next week.  We do need kernel 2.4 because of the process limits in 2.2.
Does the 'Enable Power Management (EXPERIMENTAL)' option fix the no
resources problems?
