#357 system freeze after ifconfig up on tulip card

[Leonid Kabanov]

I install slackware 10 on my CTX EzBOOK 700G. Hotplug
subsystem load tulip module and then trying to configure new
network interface. At this step system hangs. I remove `ifconfig'
call from scripts, all modules sucessfuly loaded and `ifconfig -a'
show `eth0' entry, but after `ifconfig up' system freeze.

In rc.pcmcia script I uncomment PCIC=yenta_socket and in
config.opts add irq5 to exclude list.

I don't see any obvious clues here.

Can you test the card under Windows on this laptop? Do you
have any other PCMCIA cards that you can test? Is this a
new Linux install on a new laptop where you've never tested
any of this hardware before, or do you have any data with
older setups?

Win98 works fine with this card. It is only card for now but I try to get
other card for testing.
I try install debian 3.0r2 before but default instalation use pcmcia-cs
drivers. i82365 driver always fail to load tulip_cb because irq problem
(I don't remember what exactly, something like "cannot allocate irq" or
similar). So I try newer distro with latest kernel and pcmcia-cs. debian
is first linux distro installed on this laptop.
If any information about IO resources used by windows drivers is
useful I can post it here.

Ok, if the card works on Win98 then it's clear that this
isn't a hardware issue, which is all I really wanted to check.

You could try following the debugging tips in the HOWTO to
see if you can narrow down exactly where the lockup happens.
I'm not coming up with any good ideas.
