From: courtney@whtz.com Date: Sun, 28 Nov 1999 18:18:55 -0500 This is the error I am getting: Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: transmission error: 90 Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: transmission error: 90 Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: transmission error: 90 Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 180 bytes Nov 28 18:15:52 bsd /kernel: xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 180 bytes Does anyone have any ideas on why I am getting these, and if they are normal... You're getting them because the ethernet controller is reporting back an error, specifically an underrun in the transmit buffer, and that it's increasing the preload buffer size to compensate. This isn't usually a problem, although getting this many of the error this quickly isn't really something I'm used to. As long as these messages become less common over time, it's no problem at all.
