Description of problem: When transferring a lot of data over a prism54pci interface (Netgear WG511 v1 (softmac)), the interface will eventually (sometimes minutes, sometimes hours) stop transferring any data, and a "kernel: phy0: tx overflow." message will appear in /var/log/messages.

Hello, I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug and will try and assist you in resolving it if I can. There hasn't been much activity on this bug for a while. Could you tell me if you are still having problems with the latest kernel? If the problem no longer exists then please close this bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no additional information lodged. Cheers Chris
