We are running almost 20 Fujitsu-Siemens Scenic machines, 2.6.8.1

02:01.0 Ethernet controller: Linksys NC100 Network Everywhere Fast
Ethernet 10/100 (rev 11)
No problem with those.
We are running four more machines like that, the only difference is the
kernel they are running (2.6.11.4).
On some of them, there are serious problems with a network, and they
usually happen when the traffic is bigger than usual (i.e., some big
software deployment to several workstations, remote backup, etc.).
The syslog is then full of entries like that:
Aug 21 04:04:30 SERVER-B-HS kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit
timed out
Aug 21 04:04:30 SERVER-B-HS kernel: 0000:00:06.0: tulip_stop_rxtx() failed
I am seeing thousands of tulip_stop_rxtx() failed messages as well
with 2.6.11. No regular network failure though.
See http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/1/message/110291/flat
Lucky you.
Really no network problems, no increased ping responses?
For me lots of pings are lost, and when this "tulip_stop_rxtx() failed"
happens, the time for a ping to "go back" can be as big as 14 seconds in
a 100 Mbit LAN.
