My Dell C840 got bit by the 8.19 bogomips too, and I found some MORE damage caused by this. 2.6.2-rc1-mm1 with X86_PM_TIMER finds my Ethernet cards just fine. 2.6.2-rc1-mm2, the 3c59x driver fails to find the MAC address for the cards: (the Xircom pcmcia (eth2 below) and Orinoco wireless (eth3) drivers *do* find their cards): % ip link show 1: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 2: eth1: mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000 link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: lo: mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 4: dummy0: mtu 1500 qdisc noop link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: sit0: mtu 1480 qdisc noop link/sit 0.0.0.0 brd 0.0.0.0 6: eth2: mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000 link/ether 00:10:a4:9c:a8:86 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 7: eth3: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:02:2d:5c:11:48 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff (eth0 is the onboard ethernet, eth1 was the one on the docking station). lspci says: 0000:02:00.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 78) Building without X86_PM_TIMER the 3c905 is found: % ip link show 1: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:06:5b:b9:5e:27 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 2: lo: mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 3: dummy0: mtu 1500 qdisc noop link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 4: sit0: mtu 1480 qdisc noop link/sit 0.0.0.0 brd 0.0.0.0 5: eth1: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:10:a4:9c:a8:86 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 6: eth5: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 00:02:2d:5c:11:48 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff (Am roaming and not docked, which is why the dock 3c905 isn't listed)
