Hi,

we have a problem with an Intel X520 Dualport NIC using ixgbe driver 
under RHEL 5.7

Problem:
every 2 seconds the RX Errors in ifconfig increases by one, no matter 
how much traffic is on the card

the system is connected to an Alcatel-Lucent 6850-24x Switch
This issue also shows up when the Port on the Switch is in a single VLAN.

the ixgbe driver is at version 3.13.10
the firmware of the NIX is 14.0.12

on the switch the port configuration shows autoneg off.
on the server the driver says that autoneg is on

alcatel didn't implement autoneg for 10GBit Ports because it's not part 
of the spec.

anyone has seen this behaviour or got an idea ?
