step-by-step : there can be a lot of reason for that first, i want to tell you I haven't IGP on my motherboard : it's a nforce2-400ultra (maybe the igp can give problems, i don't know) I use acpi, but I disable apic and I use test2-mm1 (maybe the mm1 patch is the reason why it works for me) to install the nvnet driver, i get the nforce2 tarball on nvidia web site I decompress then go to the nvnet source tree (nforce/nvnet) I patch it : patch -p1 < /the/path/to/nvnet.2.5-1.diff then install it with "make && make install" that's all try with the last version off nvnet, you shouldn't have any problem (I hope) ps : my network is statically configured about the cpu utilization, I notice nothing strange to get the mm1 patch, it's here : http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test2/ good luck ------------------------------------------------------------- NetCourrier, votre bureau virtuel sur Internet : Mail, Agenda, Clubs, Toolbar...
