Hello I noticed that my wi card crashed when I run tcpdump
from /var/log/messages I got this: May 23 02:37:58 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: promiscuous mode enabled May 23 02:38:03 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: watchdog timeout May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: time out allocating memory on card May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: tx buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: mgmt. buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/0; last status 4000 May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/44; last status 4044 May 23 02:38:04 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: xmit failed May 23 02:38:06 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: promiscuous mode disabled May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: watchdog timeout May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: tx buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: mgmt. buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/0; last status 4000 May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/44; last status 4044 May 23 02:38:08 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: xmit failed May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: watchdog timeout May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: tx buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: mgmt. buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/0; last status 4000 May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/44; last status 4044 May 23 02:38:13 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: xmit failed May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: watchdog timeout May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: tx buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: failed to allocate 1594 bytes on NIC May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: mgmt. buffer allocation failed May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/0; last status 4000 May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: timeout in wi_seek to 0/44; last status 4044 May 23 02:38:18 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: xmit failed May 23 02:38:20 Amnesiac kernel: wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear.
