transmit timeout problem

[Stephen Clark]

Help needed please,

In frequently I start getting the following:

Sep 29 10:32:49 joker kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
Sep 29 10:32:49 joker kernel: eth0: Transmit timed out, status fc1e4010,

This usally happens while I at work - so I have my wife restart my 
system. I have two of these cards
and have seen it happen on both of them. Anybody have an idea on how to 
fix this.

Below is the kernel version and info on the cards.

Sep 29 10:35:37 joker kernel: Linux version 2.4.20-20.9custom
