Subject: 8139too: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2001 16:12:49 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011011161249.A6856@espoo.tasking.nl> (raw)

Seen in 2.4.1[012] and possibly in some older kernels:

Oct 11 15:38:49 imatra kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out 
Oct 11 15:38:49 imatra kernel: eth0: Setting half-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 0000. 
Oct 11 15:39:13 imatra kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out 
Oct 11 15:39:13 imatra kernel: eth0: Setting half-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 0000. 
Oct 11 15:39:14 imatra kernel: nfs: server arezzo not responding, still trying 
Oct 11 15:39:14 imatra kernel: nfs: server arezzo OK 

This occurs with regular interval (especially when the network
load increases) and has been observed on two machines, i.e. bad
cables/hardware is unlikely.

The NFS problem is secondary and caused by eth0 troubles I guess.
