Hi!

I have REDHAT 6.2 Running on P150 32mb Ram
NIC: SMC1244TX

Ifconfig eth0 shows this

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:BF:9D:31:5A
inet addr:192.168.0.4 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

TX packets:0 errors:632 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:1250

Interrupt:10 Base address:0xd000


Errors and Carrier. I use the new tulip.o driver..

I can use network but i think sometimes it acts littlebit slow but not always.

So i can access internet from the machine but i was just wondering that thing. Sometimes it´s slow and i think it might be that TX error thing.

How do you feel?

Hello,

TX means transferred (sent).
RX means received.

That means no packet has got out over the network connection!!!

Could you post your , please?
