Only thing like that that is running here is OpenVPN which is using a
tun interface. There's hardl
Possibly related, could the TX hangs be due to extreme load / no free
memory on the machine? I just realised that my application appears to
be loading the machine to the max... (i.e. all 2GB RAM used + another
couple GB in swap)

Hi Stephen,
I'm still getting tx timeouts even after applying the patch you sent me
and forcing tx flow control off:
Sep 28 20:35:53 dezo kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
Sep 28 20:35:53 dezo kernel: sky2 eth1: tx timeout
Sep 28 20:35:53 dezo kernel: sky2 eth1: transmit ring 420

sky2 eth1: enablin

problem. It's easily reproducible for me since I'm running some
application stress te
