Hello,

	I've been having some trouble with a starfire I have in that it seems
	to drop packets every once in a while for a little bit and then start
	up again.  Also getting strange kernel messages:

----
eth2: Increasing Tx FIFO threshold to 320 bytes
eth2: Something Wicked happened! 2049001.
eth2: Increasing Tx FIFO threshold to 336 bytes
eth2: Something Wicked happened! 2049001.

eth2: Increasing Tx FIFO threshold to 496 bytes

	This happens on other interfaces, not just this one.  The kernel being
	used is stock 2.4.6-ac2.  Would the patches you've posted to lkml help?
	If so I can give them a shot...

		Thanks!
