Hi John,

could you be more specific regarding the nic (network interface card) you use ?

Regards,

dmesg has this to say about the card:

Does "too much work" mean the system is "exceptionally busy"? I've been doing resource limit and performance testing and have been running 90% CPU and surfing out into swap pretty heavily in recent weeks, although it seems to do this even when the system is fairly idle.

It's happened maybe 8-10 times since fc1 came out.

TIA,
John
