Hello
 
I've recently installed FreeBSD 4.10 - STABLE on VMWare 4.5.1 and some
strange errors/warnings are showing up from time to time in the log file:
 
 Jul 28 14:43:25 vmware /kernel: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
Jul 28 16:02:48 vmware /kernel: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
Jul 28 17:47:51 vmware /kernel: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
Jul 28 17:54:08 vmware /kernel: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer
Jul 28 18:52:00 vmware /kernel: lnc0: Missed packet -- no receive buffer

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
