Hi all, As a simple stress test for my board with an MPC8572E and an MPC8568E on it, I setup both processors to boot linux 2.6.27.6 with an NFS root and then perform repeated native compiles of a linux kernel over NFS. After running for 4 days straight or so with between 250-300 build cycles per processor, I stopped the builds and ran ethtool to look for any odd statistics. Both processors reported non-zero values for tx-babbling-errors. Both processors reported around 1300 tx-babbling-errors out of about 80,000,000 Tx packets. Should I be concerned about the tx-babbling-errors? What conditions would cause these errors to be reported?
Thanks, Scott ___________________________________________________________________ Scott N.
