Mar 13 02:13:34 tabriel kernel: eth1: transmit timed out, switching to 100baseTx-FDX media. 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.
