Subject: Tyan Thunder K7X Pro Ethernet Card

Hallo,

I have an APPRO node with Tyan Thunder K7X Pro (S2469)
motherboard.
It has two onboard Ethernet controllers,
????-?Intel??82545EM?10/100/1000Mbps?controller
????-?Intel??82551QM?10/100Mbps?controller
(as stated on http://www.tyan.de)
I installed Linux Slackware 10.0, and used the modules
e1000 and e100 for the two ethernet cards...
The first eth0 works well with the e1000 driver, but
eth1 with e100 does not work... if I scp a big file,
after transmitting some megabytes it hangs (scp says
"-- stalled --")
The same happens with http transfers...
I tried also with eepro100 driver, but nothing changes...

Thank you very much for any help

Anything in the logs? What does "tcpdump -nlieth1" show?
Does it survive floodpinging? Large HTTP downloads?
Do HTTP downloads from nearby box have expected throughput?
etc...
