>Description:

The le driver, using the lemac code hangs when only a 2k buffer is
used. The OACTIVE flag gets set and is never cleared.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Push the ethernet a little with only a 2k buffer.

>Fix:
	
	Changing the card's configuration to use a 32k buffer fixes the
	problem, probably because the buffer never gets filled and the OACTIVE
	flag doesn't get set.
