What was I trying to do with LLC support? I have an old JetDirect
interface in a LJ-III that speaks DLC/LLC only, and wanted to try to
use it with Linux. (It should go without saying that NT and Win2K
can talk to it just fine :-)). Both machines in a sample set of two
panic the same way... One is a desktop with the NIC driver built-in.
The other (that produced the oops output below) is a Dell Latitude CPxJ
with a modular Xircom Tulip cardbus driver.
I guess I should mention that I haven't tried this with a 2.4 kernel.
