| Hi,
| 
| I was wondering if anybody had tried the Broadcom 4401 driver on
| a Dell 2400 Desktop machine? It has a 2.4 Mhz P4, 
| 
| If I enable the SMP & APIC_IO options the driver never receives any
| interrupts. Note that the Broadcom chip is functional in that I can
| send packets out, bu unfortunately I never receive any interrupts.
| 
| If I turn off those options (they are tied together essentially) the 
| driver works. 
| 
| Note that on a Dell 2350, which also has a P4, the driver works as well
| (with those options).
| 
| Turning off the APIC_IO option essentially makes the interrupt scheme look
| like a traditional 8259A PIC. With APIC_IO enabled, interrupts get
| delivered from the APIC IO device to the Local APIC when an interrupt
| occurs.
| 
| Any ideas would be most appreciated.
| 
| Thanks.

| P.S. The driver works great on the 2350. I ftp to/from it all the time
|      and the performance is great.

I won't be of any help, I'm using it in a few asus pundit boxes, and
they're  only celeron 1.8G (but they work great though).
