[ale] SUSE10 seems to over run buffers on MB peripherals

[James Taylor]

I'm running SUSE10 on an eMachines AMD64 (as previously mentioned) and I seem to have a problem with it having some kind of timing or buffer issue with the on-board peripherals.
At first I thought I had a USB/X-windows conflict  because the USB mouse would work fine up until the last part of logging in to the desktop, then die until I rebooted the machine again.
Later I found that the on-board network card would work until I started to put an initial continuous data transfer then it would stop until I rebooted.

I saw something on the list about a week ago about a boot-up switch that changed the timing or or set delays, but it's been since deleted from my mailbox.

I wonder if this is applicable to my problem, and does anyone remember what the original problem and solution was on that one?

Thanks,
