NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
I am getting complete lockups of the NIC, up/down the interface doesn't restore it. rmmod/insmod of ne2k-pci and 8390 doesn't restore it. A reboot does.
The m/c with this card in isn't normally highly loaded on the network, but under heavy load it will lockup completely (fairly reliably I suspect). I have also had this problem with 2.4.0-test11, I had traced it to ei_tx_intr() in so much as it was calling the "ei_local->stat.collisions += 16;" line. This is 8390.c:635 in 2.4.0.
The log below shows the time I had reloaded the modules trying to bring it back to life.
