Hi, I have recently been finding these messages in the log of my server, which is named 'marvin': Aug 16 13:59:07 marvin kernel: eth1: Transmit timeout, status 0d 0000 media 18. Aug 16 13:59:07 marvin kernel: eth1: Tx queue start entry 273147 dirty entry 273143. Sometimes they occur repeatedly (every few seconds) and sometimes they are spaced in time (minutes or hours), so they seem to happen randomly. Does any of you have some idea what this type of message means? (hardware, driver, other problem)? Oh! by the way, eth1 is an rtl8139 card. Thanks, Gerardo Searching for the best free email?
