Hi Edward / Simon
Hi all,
Sep 5 00:06:35 wall kernel: eth0: Transmit error, Tx status register 82.
Some sort of ethernet failure - probably in hardware..
card is 3c59x boomerang tx_ring is full, so that you received these messages.
Sep 5 00:06:35 wall kernel: Flags; bus-master 1, dirty 17668(4) current 17668(4)
Sep 5 00:06:35 wall kernel: Transmit list 00000000 vs. c74f2300.
Sep 5 00:06:35 wall kernel: 0: @c74f2200 length 80000586 status 00010586
<SNIP> No Idea - need someone who knows more about cryptic kenel messages for these
</SNIP>
this is the dump of bus_master_tx. I think you should solve this problem by increasing TX_RING_SIZE value in 3c59x.c driver. But you have to care that the value is the power of 2. MURAT KOC
