hi lkml,
I just built 2.4.3-ac3 with my old 2.4.2 .config and somehow networking does not work.
dhclient eventually froze the machine.
here is what dhclient complains.

The ACPI powermanagement for the 3c59x devices appears to be a bit broken.
Disable ACPI support. Recompile. Reboot. Watch problem disappear hopefully.
Ciao, Marcus
Thats right. ACPI was what made 3c90x not work :( With APM it works perfectly.
Thanks Marcus.

I'm confused. 3c59x.c has a little acpi WOL stuff, but that's it.
What specifically is ACPI doing to break things? Are ACPI and the NIC
sharing any resources?

I tried "#ifdef 0"-ing the set_WOL function body( empty function ) in
3c59x.c and enabled acpi and built another kernel
and I still have the problem.
So its NOT a problem with the ACPI code in 3c59x.c per se.
I noticed that the following message was from net/core/netfilter.c( i
got this message on running dhclient )
ip_local_deliver: bad loopback skb: PRE_ROUTING LOCAL_IN
so i diabled netfilter also, and I still had the issue.
I assigned a static IP. ifconfig showed me the right info.
"route" however froze most of the times. I have 2 routes
172.16.12.0 * 255.255.252.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default 172.16.12.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
It would freeze after the first one most often. If it did'nt, do a ping http://www.google.com,
which will drop all the packets, and try route again, and it would freeze after the first route.
I strace'd route and noticed that I was waiting on "poll". I have attached the strace
info on route.

I dont know about sharing resources. I have attached my dmesg.
The whole thing works like a charm under APM however.
I'm gonna try increasing vortex_debug level to see what happens.
would be glad to furnish more info...
