| |
Hi I'm running 2.1.123(3c509.c:1.12) and for awhile now(older kernels too,) large amounts of traffic cause this card to stop transmitting with the error:
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status a0 status 2004 Tx FIFO room 1440
The situation is completely reproducable. In fact only 2 concurrent ping floods to a nearby host using a ne2000 clone trigger the stop of all transmision(for about a second). Is this common? Glancing at the source, my only guess would be some kind of hardware problem or queue filling up too fast... Help! :)
Running on a dual ppro-200.
Thanks
