Hi,
I've noticed strange problem, 
With newer kernels 2.6.18, 2.6.19 when trying to load both Ethernet interfaces 
(for example root FS is mounted via NFS on eth0 and large TFTP file transfer is 
performed on eth1), the following happens:
- either ethernet throughput is drastically reduced, pings become 1-4s (on both 
interfaces), however everything works;
- or "NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out" happens. With debug on I see 
that drivers tries to recover from this, but with no success, the only way is 
to reboot board. 

As I remember, in earlier kernels (2.6.11 for sure) it works. Also using only 
one interface at a moment, no problem (24h tests, 100's of gigabyte 
tranferred).  

Any ideas/suggestions?

thanks in advance,
