Any suggestions on how to overcome this problem??? My only 

idea is to either

add data to the packet (don't think this will work) or 

forceably fragment

the packet (if it is 2K in size) to ensure that it never 

uses the exact size

of the tx fifo.....

Have you applied Matt Porters patch? It has been submitted at 
the beginning
of this month?

No I haven't seen it on either of these lists, do you know 

where I can find

it 

Thanks

Browse the linuxpp-embedded archive list, I think it was 
around the 9th

Thanks for this however it is not the problem I am experiencing at present,
my problem is with the TX and not the RX side of things, I have added debug
and the ibm_emac_core prints out that the packet has been transmitted,
however I see nothing at the other end when you transmit a packet of tx fifo
size bytes from the PPC 440 GX, packets of <tx fifo size or >tx fifo size
are transmitted fine from the PPC 440 GX, so long as you do not transmit a
packet of Tx fifo size.

Thanks
