Some time ago I had similar NFS problems with a tyan box with an integrated 3com 3c920 NIC. What I found out is that full duplex does not work very well when a certain Netgear 100mbit ethernet switch was used. Using a Lantronix switch the problem was gone. AFAIR, the workarounds were: - force half duplex in /kernel/drv/elxl.conf - use a different ethernet switch Quite a few people have reported full duplex problems with the elxl driver; maybe there's a bug somewhere in the elxl driver with full/half duplex negotiation?
