Assuming your switch ain't a piece of crap like the old Cajuns we have at work, which *won't* talk 100Mbps full-duplex (only half-duplex), and that the cabling and EMI is within acceptable limits... well, see here: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113982 Apparently the tg3 driver you're using might be buggy. Force it to full-duplex mode. Given the number of fixes that driver has seen lately, it is probably a good idea to switch to the latest kernel (2.4.27 or 2.6.8.1) at once, if you haven't done it already. You can force it to full-duplex mode in the kernel or modprobe command line, if the driver still doesn't support the IOCTLs needed for miitool/ethtool to tell it to switch to full-duplex. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
