SubjectStrange obeservation with 2.1.24 + 2.1.24-patch1
Just installed a 3c590 ethernet adapter in place of a 3c509 and checked
ifconfig after booting just to verify everything looked ok. This is what i
got.

~> ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:136 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:136 overruns:0

eth0 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:20:AF:EF:33:72
inet addr:206.224.95.210 Bcast:206.224.95.223 Mask:255.255.255.240
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:3253 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:4672 overruns:0
Interrupt:11 Base address:0x6100


Notice there are no transmitted or recieved packets, only RX errors and TX
drops. The funny thing is that the machine is running on the network
without and problems, in fact i'm typing to it right now over the network.
So i figure that it's the new ethernet card acting weird, but loopback is
doing the same thing. Over time, the drops and overruns on each will
increase with traffic to the machine. netstat -i is also showing the same
behavior.

~> netstat -i
Kernel Interface table
Iface MTU Met RX-OK RX-ERR RX-DRP RX-OVR TX-OK TX-ERR TX-DRP TX-OVR Flags
lo 3584 0 0 140 0 0 0
0 140 0 BLRU
eth0 1500 0 0 3388 0 0 0
0 4793 0 BRU


This is kernel 2.1.24 + 2.1.24-patch1. Did some counters get erf'd?

Thanks,
Roy
