I get these errors on using the D-Link DFE-580TX 4 port ethernet card.
This is with a RedHat kernel 2.4.18-5smp and using the latest sundance
driver version 1.09. These errors used to be much more frequent with
earlier versions of the driver but they still occur. These errors are
just a
few of the many in my syslog.

Here is output of the card init:

Any ideas on what it could be? The card will stop working for a bit
after a reset but
it always comes back. This kind of behavior won't work for a production
box however.
