x10: Transmission error: 90
x10: underrun, increasing tx start threshold to 120 bytes

x10 is listed as the server's PCI ethernet card.  Our thought is the NIC may be going bad...or it is not configured correctly after restarting the server last week (a non-computer realted  problem forced us to have to reboot...).  Clearly we need to run a diagnostic program from 3COM (it's a 3c90x type card) to see if it will report an error.  We've not noticed any problems worth mentioning, although there are some quirks I'll probably need to ask about (relating to hylafax, one of the ported apps we're running).  Just wondered if anyone knows that this is definitely a hardware issue or could possibly be something we missed after restarting the server...something that needs to be reconfigured.
