Ahh the famous transmit timed out... D-LINK network card perhaps? The only thing I've managed to find out so far about this problem is that it's a driver issue with some of the last revisions of the D-LINK 530TX network card. I've also noticed that the problem only occurs when there's heavy network traffic. Sometimes it can recover itself after the transmit timeout several times before the card/driver needs a manual reset to get back in action. I've also noticed that the problem doesn't occur in 2.2 kernels nor in the first few 2.4 kernels but in the current kernel versions the problem is there for months and doesn't seem to get fixed. Better swap that NIC for a 3COM or something if this is mission-critical machine or if you're tired of resetting the NIC yourself :) -- Regards, Jo Voordeckers
