I have 3 NIC on my server. I can ping the ip address of each NIC when I launch the ping command from the server.
my problem is that one NIC doesn't work. When I try to ping the ip address of this card, from another computer it doesn't work. When the server boot, it send a message signaling that one NIC card doesn't have the right irq.

So What I want to do, is to uninstall the card and re-install it. Do I need to recompile the kerneld or not ?
how can I set the right irq for the card ?
what files should I have a look ?
All 3 NIC are same (3com).

thanks for you help, I'm a beginner, I only Know a few basic command in linux. thank in advance.
