John. Thanks for the tip. I changed ETHER_ALIGN to 0 and the driver started to work. I am not sure about the performance since I seem to get only 50 Mbit over a 100 Mbit line. However this is much better than the timeout warnings... Thanks for the input. It is really appreciated. Do you need

I've the same problems and i fixed partially the problem by bumping the return ring count. #define BGE_RETURN_RING_CNT 1024 -> #define BGE_RETURN_RING_CNT 2048 i dont think it is THE solution but it works better than before for me... ppn> We have a Dell poweredge 2650 (successor to 2550
