I am getting "e1000: eth0: e1000_clean_tx_irq: Detected Tx Unit Hang" using
stock 2.6.17.11, 2.6.17.5 or 2.6.17.4 kernels on centos 4.3.
The server is a Tyan GS12 ( 82541GI/PI and 82547GI) and is connected to a
Netgear GS724T Gig switch. I can easily reproduce the problem by trying to
do a large ftp transfer to the server. It does not happen if the server is
connected to a dummy 100 Mb switch, only when is connected to the Gig
switch.
I have also tried the options line below disabling tso, tx and rx in the
modprobe.conf without any luck.
options e1000 XsumRX=0 Speed=1000 Duplex=2 InterruptThrottleRate=0
FlowControl=3 RxDescriptors=4096 TxDescriptors=4096 RxIntDelay=0
TxIntDelay=0
in /var/log/kernel I get the following...

is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex
then the server locks up, no response from the keyboard at all and must be
forced down with a power kill. The suggested tips on how to deal with this
issue are not working so if I can help troubleshoot this let me know.
