>Description:
The problem is that I keep geeting the following messages:

xl0: transmission error: 90
xl0: tx underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes

and sometimes the network hangs and I have to reboot the machine.
The FreeBSD PC is mounting some NFS volumes and I get these messages
when I write a large file over NFS.

I'm using the following Ethernet Card:

xl0: <3Com 3c905-TX Fast Etherlink XL> rev 0x00 int a irq 17 on pci0.11.0
xl0: Ethernet address: 00:60:97:b8:65:cf
xl0: autoneg complete, link status good (full-duplex, 100Mbps)


>How-To-Repeat:
Write large files over NFS mounted volumes.
