Printer / ethernet card conflict
 
Hello everybody,
Few weeks ago I upgraded my linux mandrake from 8.0 version to 9.0. Everything worked absolutely fine, even my Epson C20UX usb printer (that I couldn't get working under 8.0 release) was detected and fully operative. From yesterday -surprise !- my printer doesn't work anymore. My printer stopped working after I installed my adsl connection using a D-Link G300 modem as dhcp server, so I suppose there's an interrupt conflict between printer and ethernet card.

My /proc/interrupts file is :

CPU0
0: 66362 IO-APIC-edge timer
1: 1792 IO-APIC-edge keyboard
2: 0 XT-PIC cascade
5: 192 IO-APIC-level usb-uhci, usb-uhci, usb-uhci
8: 1 IO-APIC-edge rtc
12: 43271 IO-APIC-edge PS/2 Mouse
14: 15650 IO-APIC-edge ide0
15: 161 IO-APIC-edge ide1
16: 54484 IO-APIC-level nvidia, eth0
17: 2 IO-APIC-level bttv
19: 0 IO-APIC-level EMU10K1
NMI: 0
LOC: 66317
ERR: 0
MIS: 0


The command "modinfo 8139too" (8139too is Ethernet's module) gives the following result :

filename: /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o.gz
description: "RealTek RTL-8139 Fast Ethernet driver"
author: "Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@m...>"
license: "GPL"
parm: multicast_filter_limit int, description "8139too maximum
number of filtered multicast addresses"
parm: max_interrupt_work int, description "8139too maximum
events handled per interrupt"
parm: media int array (min = 1, max = 8), description "8139too:
Bits 4+9: force full duplex, bit 5: 100Mbps"
parm: full_duplex int array (min = 1, max = 8), description
"8139too: Force full duplex for board(s) (1)"
parm: debug int, description "8139too bitmapped message enable
number"


So, what's going on in your opinion ? How could I resolve this problem ?
Thanx in advance,

Teo
