Samsung SC1200-TX problem.

Hi folks,

I have a samsung SC1200-TX rev-1a(with genuine DEC Tulip 21140 on
board)  ethernet card in a dual celeron computer. My net is 10BaseT.
The problem is that Samsung ethernet card transmits packets very
slowly, i.e. 90Kbyte-100Kbyte/sec under Linux(RH 5.2. I tried Kernel
2.2.5, 2.2.3, 2.2.2, all have the same problem), but receiving packets
seems okay(between 700kbyte-1Mbyte/sec). I tried the lastest tulip
driver(0.91), it doesn't help either. However, the ethernet card works
flawlessly under windoze( both upload and download at
800kbyte-1Mbyte/sec). 

diagnostics result is attached.

Any idea? Thank in advance!

Heling
