Transmit timeout problem with Linksys LNE100Tx

[Michael Haertjens]

Hi,

  I sometimes (at least once a day) get Transmit timeout problems with
a Linksys LNE100Tx on my eth0.  I am using a 2.2.13 kernel with driver
support compiled in.  I it is connected to a DLink 10Mb hub.

Relevant data on driver and card(s) from syslog:
Feb  8 05:00:44 vir kernel: tulip.c:v0.91 4/14/99
becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov
Feb  8 05:00:44 vir kernel: eth0: Lite-On PNIC-II rev 37 at 0xfc00,
00:A0:CC:33:E0:F7, IRQ 11.
Feb  8 05:00:44 vir kernel: eth1: Lite-On PNIC-II rev 37 at 0xf800,
00:A0:CC:33:E9:98, IRQ 9.

Typical failure mode, from syslog:

Feb  8 07:49:39 vir kernel: eth0: Transmit timed out, status e4260000,
CSR12 000050ca, resetting...
Feb  8 07:50:09 vir last message repeated 6 times

syslog.6.gz:Feb  5 09:00:02 vir kernel: eth0: Transmit timed out, status
e4260000, CSR12 000050ca, resetting...

Can you shed some light on what is happening here or suggest a possible
solution to the problem?

Thanks
