Bug#556433: linux-image-2.6.30-2-486: 3c59x: NETDEV WATCHDOG: transmit timed out
Hello Moritz,
>> Package: linux-image-2.6.30-bpo.2-486
>> Version: 2.6.30-8~bpo50+1
>> Severity: critical
[snip]
> The next release of Debian (6.0, code name Squeeze) will be based
> on 2.6.32. Please test the current 2.6.32 from unstable and tell
> us whether the problem persists. If so, we should report it upstream
> to the kernel.org developers.
I installed linux-image-2.6.32-rc8-486 from unstable, and put the
server under network load (watching movie file served via sshfs from
another server via sshfs - in and out load). The sshfs dropped after
a minute or two and dmesg reported "NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (3c59x):
transmit queue 0 timed out", but the network interface didn't
completely die (which means I could still access the machine remotely
via the network interface). See dmesg text below.
Best Regards,
Steve
