(I can't tell if it made its way to the list......)
I also have some more information. This ethdev is connected to a
Efficient Networks Speedstream 5260, which may be the cause of the
problems (the modem came w/ a D-Link RTL8139C ethdev, but I replaced
both of my ethdevs w/ tulips.) Maybe I need to find out how to program
the EEPROM for 10Mbps half duplex ?????
I am currently running 2.4.18-pre9-mjc2, but this also happens w/
2.4.18-pre9 (and 2.4.18-pre7-mjc, maybe others)
I am getting NETDEV Watchdog timeouts

I have been getting this at largely unpredictable intervals. The
solutions seems to be to ifdown the ethdevs, and rmmod the driver. then
ifup the ethdevs (which also means I have to stop my PPPoE-DSL
connection).
eth1, the dev that is timing out is not sharing its interrupt.
These boards are/were marketed under the brand name SVEC. I cannot find
the box they came in at the moment, so don't have the model number.

It made it both times :)

I see it a lot on a Netgear FA310TX
( detected as Lite-On 82c168 PNIC rev 33)
With both v 1.1.8(June 16,2001) and
v 0.9.15-pre9(Nov 6, 2001)
kernel is 2.4.19-pre2-ac2 but it's been a problem for
months.

I only get the NETDEV messages.

Using xfs top serve fonts to a Solaris8 box was impossible.
too many timeouts. Same for NFS mounted $HOME (from Solaris)
making it impossible to use the box.
