Since using kernel 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 I have been having very weird problems
with my network. Suddenly the network connection drops and dies until I
take down the interface, and then successfully ping a machine. This is the
only thing that I can get out of syslog that is relevant:

Jan 31 14:17:29 cr753963-a kernel: eth1: 21143 10baseT link beat good.
Jan 31 14:17:50 cr753963-a kernel: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed
out
Jan 31 14:17:50 cr753963-a kernel: eth1: 21041 transmit timed out, status
fc6908c5, CSR12 000001c8, CSR13 ffffef05, CSR14 ffffff3f, resetting...
Jan 31 14:17:50 cr753963-a kernel: eth1: 21143 100baseTx sensed media.

The only problem is, is that eth1 is a 10mbit card. This also happens when
I remove eth1, and only have eth0 in the computer. I put eth1 to see if it
would fix the problem.

Relevant info:
