eth0: card reports no RX buffers. (eepro100)
This started happening recently. Sometimes when i boot up my screen
floods with :
eth0: card reports no RX buffers.
eth0: card reports no resources.
eth0: card reports no RX buffers.
over and over again.. at first i thought it was an IRQ conflict but
nothing in the system had changed it just started out of nowhere
apparently(after a reboot once) i figured a way around it, to
/etc/init.d/networking stop then start it again after a few
seconds(haven't tried to issue just a restart) and the errors stop. was
wondering if this could be the result of the system booting too fast ?
my system takes about 6 seconds from when init loads to when X
launches(probably more like 4-5 seconds) the same hardware when i was
running slower stuff(128MB as opposed to 512MB and 466mhz as opposed to
800mhz) this never happened. Running on an Asus CUV4X(VIA Apollo
Pro133A). I did move the NIC from PCI#4 to PCI#2 with no difference.
really odd.
