Default Now this is weird... any ideas??

Problem #1:

OK i finally have my DWL-650+ PCMCIA card working just fine for the Internet
etc.

What is going is IF I notice my CPU is overheating like crazy by the
Ksoftirqd_CPU0 I have to go into the command line and
type: "ifup eth1 kill" This solves my problem, CPU cools down to normal,
and i can still surf the net on my wireless pc card.

If I go into the command line and purposely type : "ifup eth1 start" my CPU
starts acting up again (overheating, and the fan comes on non-stop!).

Any ideas how to stop this from boot-up and why i have to do it.... it is
obviously disturbing.



Problem #2:

I have no sound when I load my Mandrake 9.1 O/S. I am using Cirrus Logic,
Inc. for the Manufacturer of my sound device (in m.s. system information it
also states the name of: Crystal WDM Audio Codec).
How abouts do I get my sound generated in Mandrake 9.1?


Thanks in advance
Cheers

How many friggin times are you going to post the same problem under a
different thread name??? Have you even read any of the replies to your
other post(s)...??? Come on dude, read the answers and do something about
it, other than repeating the same question over and over. Sheesh.

"ifup" is a shell script, that dosn't understand more than on parameter. Try
running it without additional parameters a 2nd time.
Try "top" to find out about the CPU hog.
Run that script in debug mode (# sh -x /sbin/ifup eth1 2>/tmp/ifup.out)
and watch the file.

Again, run in debug mode, saving the file, and run "top" afterwards.
Compare the outputs.

Maybe your driver doesn't work as well as intended?
