hi!

i get a lot of messages of this kind:

Apr 6 17:44:33 home kernel: eth0: RTL8139 Interrupt line blocked, status 4.
Apr 6 17:44:33 home kernel: eth0: SMP simultaneous entry of an interrupt handler.

linux 2.2.19
dual pentium 166
rtl8139
high network load (encrypted x applications over network)

with a low load i don't get the messages.

everything seems to work fine. are these interrupt problems "bad" or merely
indicators of a high load. can/should one get rid of them?

MfG,
Armin Obersteiner
