Further to my original email here are four tulip-diaf -fa outputs the
first shows the card after inital set up, all is running well, the
other three are when the card is down.

As before _ANY_ feedback would be appreciated.


The messages in the log are :-
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
eth0: transmit timed out, status f4260000, CSR12 ffffffff, resetting...
