I'm using the 8139too driver of linux-2.6.10. When outgoing traffic becomes high it is interrupted for several seconds and i get this: sort kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out sort kernel: eth1: Transmit timeout, status 0d 0000 c07f media 00. sort kernel: eth1: Tx queue start entry 8588 dirty entry 8584. sort kernel: eth1: Tx descriptor 0 is 00120386. (queue head) sort kernel: eth1: Tx descriptor 1 is 0012003c. sort kernel: eth1: Tx descriptor 2 is 00120056. sort kernel: eth1: Tx descriptor 3 is 0012003c. sort kernel: eth1: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x41E1 after some seconds the network traffic resumes but almost immediately after I get an other 'transmit timed out' and so on...
