Re: eth1: Transmit timeout (...)



Hum, in options (cd /usr/src/linux ; make menuconfig),

when you choose the driver for you card (rtl8139too), are u enabled this
option =>

[ ]       Use PIO instead of MMIO  ?

If yes, in my case, this is no very helpful and very buggy for my
network board. I disabled this option and it's OK.

Network board:

Aug  8 19:26:47 wisdom kernel: 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.18
Aug  8 19:26:47 wisdom kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 00:0a.0
Aug  8 19:26:47 wisdom kernel: eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at
0xd088c000, 00:50:ba:d8:36:43, IRQ 9
Aug  8 19:26:47 wisdom kernel: eth0:  Identified 8139 chip type
'RTL-8139B'
