But it's not the NIC or the drivers; they all work splendidly. 

I just want to suppress those error messages ...

| 
| ... getting lots of errors in both syslog and kern.log:
| 
| Aug 12 11:21:21 yoreach kernel: eth0: Transmit error, Tx status register 82.
| Aug 12 11:21:21 yoreach kernel: Probably a duplex mismatch.  See
|      Documentation/networking/vortex.txt
| Aug 12 11:21:21 yoreach kernel:   Flags; bus-master 1, dirty 3351435(11)
|      current 3351435(11)
| Aug 12 11:21:21 yoreach kernel:   Transmit list 00000000 vs. c3bf14c0.
| Aug 12 11:21:21 yoreach kernel:   0: @c3bf1200  length 80000036 status
| 00010036
| Aug 12 11:21:21 yoreach kernel:   1: @c3bf1240  length 80000036 status
| 00010036
| 
| etc., etc. filling up the logs. 
| 
| I've read the vortex page, and I think that those packets are spurious;

| 
| But the messages are quite a bother, and they exhaust the log filesystem.
|
