Which version of the kernel?

Things to check: MTU<=2000, CONFIG_SKB_LARGE=Y (if available).

xmit ret_code 28 means "Transmit frame length not valid command",
which kinda points to your MTU.

xmit error_code D8 is meaningless in this case and can be safely
ignored.

adapter error: ISRP_EVEN : 04 essentially means the driver/adapter has
thrown itself on its own sword.
