I have another one of these boards running on a system with 5.4 without issue at gigabit speed. It appears that something happened in the bge driver from 5.x to 6.x at gigabit speeds, at least with some of the supported chipsets.

Its dmesg ID is seen below in the quoted section. I had another machine with this same MB that ran for a long time fine until I upgraded it to 6.0 or 6.1 last Fall and then I started to have the same problem (a post about it is in the archives). I assumed it was a HW issue and turned off the port in the BIOS and used the other port until I took the machine offline as the customer using it no longer needed it. Now this machine is having the same symptoms and I remember reading in the lists something about PHY and bge and some driver problems a while back but cannot fnd it now in the archives. Could this be a SW problem or is it a HW issue? Could it be related to the port it is connected to or the cable or something? The other machine that had this problem was on a different switch brand. Thanks Chad This appears to be a HW problem at first look. But when the server boots, it works fine for a while (hours, days??)

Also, have you looked at the switch-side interface for errors, buffer problems, etc. (if that's possible)? Finally, have you swapped ports/cables on the switch? Regards, Mike Hi Mike Right now it seems to be behaving. netstat -i shows no issues and I have not had the problem recur again once I forced it from auto negotiation which ended up at 1000tx full duplex to now be 100tx at full duplex. I don't know if it is related to the problem or not or is a coincidence that once I did that the problem has not arisen. It happened about 3 times today before forcing the connection to be 100tx. If it starts to happen again I will try and log in to the console and do the netstat -i then... In the morning I will break out my powerbook and get the switch port assignments off a chart I have there so I can log in to the switch and check the port for errors. I have not swapped ports/cables on the switch this time around but have had the exact same symptoms on a server with the same HW that was using different cables and a different switch... I may swap cables but the machine is downtown and I am not so unless I cannot make progress I want to avoid going downtown :-) I may swap the mainboard if it happens again to see if it is HW. I have one or two spare mainboards of the same sort. Thanks!
