I use 3c905 cards on my desktop systems and the server... using the 3c59x
driver and a SMC tulip card with the laptop. We're quite similar there. My
main desktop (K7@850MHz on Epox 7KXA KX-133 Mainboard), which I installed
SMGL onto has no NFS problem.

Suddenly, linux doesn't like my media box with the K6-3+ on the DFI K6BV3+ mainboard...
with the 2.4 kernel (pre-SMGL) it was ok, I guess. Also, I put a new card in recently
(Hauppauge HVR-1300 DVB-T/TV card not yet really supported in linux and with crappy
Windows software not working either)... one could argue that this one makes some
conflict; but this wouldn't explain smb transfers being fast enough. I'll do some
testing with a Knoppix if I find/burn one... If another 2.6 distro works fine... well,
I'll try the kernel config from that one. If that then still has bad NFS on sourcemage,
then one should discuss this further - maybe on that IRC you keep suggesting (just
installed a client and peeked in... btw: I'm "sobukus" there).


Thomas.

The problem with my assessment of network card drivers is that, with
SMB transfering fine on the same box that NFS does not, it sounds more
an NFS problem than network drivers. Have you tried a 2.4 kernel on
SMGL to see if that fixes your problem?
