sharing interrupts.

Yes.

> Also, if you've got the memory, you could increase the
OLYMPIC_RX_RING_SIZE value from 16 to something serious like 64 (let's see
64 * 4K = 256K for rx buffers, yeh we can do that.) If that still dies
horribly, try increasing TX_RING_SIZE as well, your machine might be trying
to transmit faster than the card can service the requests.

I tried to increase OLYMPIC_RX_RING_SIZE to 64 and the TX_RING_SIZE to 32 -
nothing!
I inserted the option "options olympic ringspeed=0 message_level=1", but no
soft errors
were displayed at system console or /var/log/warn. Where is the logging?

Frank.
