Just me
>Environment:

Two more or less identical machines doing bridging with pairs of
tx cards.

>Description:

One machine has a pair of rev 0x06 cards. One has a 0x06 and a 0x07
card.

The machine with the 0x07 card has to be rebooted every couple of days.
The 0x07 interface basically just goes dead.

I will swap out the 0x07 with a 0x06 to see if it goes away, but I
bet it will.

>How-To-Repeat:

It is unclear whether turning on promiscuous mode (which is what
bridging does) brings out this bug or not. It may even be a hardware
bug, but if it is across rev 0x07 chips, then it will at least need
to be worked around.
