new network card defective?

[William Jensen <jensenb@charter.net>]

Greetings everyone,

I dropped an intel etherexpress pro/100 into the system this morning, redid
the kernel to support.  First time I booted up I saw the following as fast
as it could draw to the screen:

Oct 12 09:37:21 stimpy kernel: eth0: card reports no RX buffers.
Oct 12 09:37:21 stimpy kernel: eth0: card reports no resources.

I rebooted and it worked fine.  What is this error supposed to be telling
me and any ideas on resolution so it isn't a 'flaky' problem that happens
off and on?

Thanks,

Bill
