Re: Kernel 2.6.9 Multiple Page Allocation Failures (Part 2)

Ok, thanks, one last question,

I do not explicitly set ethtool* tso, however I use dhcpcd on this interface, does that set TSO on the interface? I have never used TSO (that I am aware of) and I am wondering if it is something else?

This should be harmless - networking will recover. The TSO fix was
merged a week or so ago.
