And it hit the other interface after 200 MB transferred... NETDEV WATCHDOG: bridgeext0: transmit timed out sky2 bridgeext0: tx timeout NETDEV WATCHDOG: bridgeext0: transmit timed out sky2 transmit interrupt missed? recovered Although the driver claims to recover, it doesn't recover at all. What debug level would be advisable? It is now running with "modprobe sky2 debug=2", but I can't see more than the messages above. I have now added a hard reset routine to the tx timeout path and hope it won't kill my machine.
