On further testing I find the following when doing a flood ping:

eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2000 Tx FIFO room 1496.
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2000 Tx FIFO room 4092.
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2000 Tx FIFO room 4092.
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2000 Tx FIFO room 4092.
eth0: transmit timed out, Tx_status 00 status 2000 Tx FIFO room 1496.

and this from ifconfig:

eth0 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:24:5A:E1:FA
inet addr:172.16.1.1 Bcast:172.16.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:238839 dropped:0 overruns:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
Interrupt:5 Base address:0x300

No packets but 238839 errors? The are being sent out over the network.
Either I'm not understanding something or there is some strangeness
here...

Hardware:

Supermicro P6DNE
Bt-958
3com 509
dual PPro 150
