Subject: Re: [E1000-devel] behaviour question for igb on nehalem box

I'm have just put together a Nehalem system (1 x Xeon), 
2.6.30.8-64.fc11.x86_64, which has quad onboard 82576 and noticed during 
testing using just a single interface, that the RX queues on the other 3 
were receiving interrupts - observed in /proc/interrupts.

Is this normal behaviour?

Regards,

Richard
