SubjectRE: 3c905B - Transmit error, Tx status register 82
Date
From
Lee,

Thanks for the reply.

We have tried moving my network connection to a new switch, replaced the
cables, but still getting that error.

What do I do with that command options 3c59x full_duplex=1, where do I
put it? Bare with me as I am a newbie.

Thanks,
Joe

Um... did you check Documentation/networking/vortex.txt?

261 Transmit error, Tx status register 82
262 -------------------------------------
263
264 This is a common error which is almost always caused by another
host on
265 the same network being in full-duplex mode, while this host is
in
266 half-duplex mode. You need to find that other host and make it
run in
267 half-duplex mode or fix this host to run in full-duplex mode.
268
269 As a last resort, you can force the 3c59x driver into
full-duplex mode
270 with
271
272 options 3c59x full_duplex=1
273
274 but this has to be viewed as a workaround for broken network
gear and
275 should only really be used for equipment which cannot
autonegotiate.
