in vortex.txt, it says:

Transmit error, Tx status register 82
-------------------------------------
This is a common error which is almost always caused by another host on
the same network being in full-duplex mode, while this host is in
half-duplex mode. You need to find that other host and make it run in
half-duplex mode or fix this host to run in full-duplex mode.
As a last resort, you can force the 3c59x driver into full-duplex mode
with
options 3c59x full_duplex=1
but this has to be viewed as a workaround for broken network gear and
should only really be used for equipment which cannot autonegotiate.

i can reproduce this error on that 3c905 nic and a manageable switch by
forcing them on a duplex mismatch.
