Hi,

I have a Linux RedHat 6.2 (2.4.15) running over an Intel L440GX+, which uses
an Intel Etherxpress 10/100 card.

ifconfig shows the following:

eth0      Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet  HWaddr 00:D0:B7:89:1A:FF
          inet addr:-  Bcast:-  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:919622753 errors:31360022 dropped:0 overruns:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:2147483647
          Interrupt:21 Base address:0x2000

It's quite strange because, is connected to a Cisco Catalyst 2900XL with the
ports forced to work 100 Mbps. Also, the errors is raising up. Any idea of
what is happening ?

Thanks,

Edson T.
