But was fixed with this commit, made on the 7th. revision 1.52 date: 1996/07/27 12:40:31; author: amurai; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2 Under the heavy load for transmiting condition, it will be write error and then never accept for sending packet from upper layer anymore (i.e. ping -f ) Reviewed by: David Greenman Submitted by: amurai@spec.co.jp So, try getting your sources again and it should be fixed.
