3c59x timeout problem

3c59x.c: 0.99H
Linux Kernek: 2.2.6

eth0: 3Com 3c590 Vortex 10Mpbs at 0xef20,  00:a0:24:8b:ad:a1, IRQ 10
  8K byte-wide RAM 1:1 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/10baseT interface.

I am sorry if this is inapropriate, but I have this problem with 3c590,
everyonce in a while, under heavy load, it just stops working and keeps on
spitting out:

eth0: transmit timed out, tx_status 00 status e000.

If I `ifdown eth0`, `rmmod 3c59x`, `ifup eth0`, it works again.

Any suggestions?
