I have reported that 3c509.c driver stops receiving interrupts ocasionally
(once a few days) on all 2.2.13..16 kernels (dual P200).
I did not have this problem with 2.0.3x kernels.

Recently I have booted 2.2.16pre3 kernel with noapic option.
Then this problem is much more frequent, about few times per hour when I use
the machine (remote X11 session)  / few times per day when I do not use it.
ifconfig down/up makes it working again

I am getting messages like:
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2019 Tx FIFO room 3068.
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2019 Tx FIFO room 3068.


Here is the situation.
