Greetings,
I'm using a 3com 3C900 combo "Boomerang" network card in a high load (5
hits/sec) Linux web server.
I'm currently using kernel 2.0.35 and the network card driver version
0.99H. I recently upgraded to this card from an older ISA card (3C509) and
it has been going pretty well so far.
Once in a while though, from once a day down to once a week I get this
message in my logs:
kernel: eth0: transmit timed out, tx_status 00 status e000.
kernel: Flags; bus-master 1, full 1; dirty 54687 current 54703.
kernel: Transmit list 00000000 vs. 0038a310.

kernel: 15: @0038a310 length 800005ea status 000005ea
kernel: eth0: Resetting the Tx ring pointer.
An ifconfig shows that the TX errors has increased by one. Is this a bug or
is there anything I can do to fix the problem? What causes it?
Thank you,
Johan Lundgren
