Its not that frequent, but it does happen. eg Feb 17 17:59:28 auth2 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Feb 21 16:17:50 auth2 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Feb 28 11:13:11 auth2 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Mar 7 09:01:43 auth2 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Mar 10 10:21:12 auth2 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting Mar 14 03:50:46 auth2 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting bge0: mem 0xfe5f0000-0xfe5fffff irq 19 at device 0.0 on pci4 miibus1: on bge0 brgphy0: on miibus1 brgphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseTX, 1000baseTX-FDX, auto bge0: Ethernet address: 00:e0:81:59:2b:06 ---Mike
