Hi there,

I  get the following message when trying to transfer big files 
(via FTP or SCP) since Linux 2.6.16.27. It didn't happen with Linux 2.6.13.4.

[702238.242237] eth1: increased tx threshold, txcfg 0xd0f01008.
[702238.242649] eth1: increased tx threshold, txcfg 0xd0f0100a.

What about putting this message at the message level "DEBUG"
or even under pr_debug()?

This NIC is just used for PPPoE in our setups.

The other message "tx underrun with maximum tx threshold"
is much more useful, since it indicates a real problem.

So I would suggest the following patch:
